Running linux under Mac OS X



 Hi,

 Is it possible to run linux on top a mac os X system?

There are some programs that only run under linux which I need for my work. But most of my work is done under Mac OS X (on an iBook G3 700). I already installed a debian system on my iBook (but erased it since it was not very parctical to switch from a system to another).

I don't need Xwindows although beeing able to launch X11 application from linux that connect to my apple X11 server would be helpful. And I don't need any fancy hardware gestion (mouse, keyboard, DVD, USB, Firewire...). I juste need to be able to launch some programs that run under linux in a command line and of course being able to read the result (files).

 Thanks in advance.

BTW, my question was inspired from the project: MOL http://www.maconlinux.org/ . Searching the web for "linux on mac OS X" only gives pages that explain that linux can run on a Macintosh...
