Ok Mate.

You got me there. I have not tried Gentoo's LiveCD.
No PPC machine yet. I have tried Knoppix ,which is amazing. I was hoping Gentoo worked the same way.


Any how this is the spec for Gentoo.

To use the LiveCDs, Simply boot one on your NewWorld PowerPC (iMac or newer) and enjoy the great performance and functionality of Gentoo Linux/PPC. LiveCDs can be downloaded here or at similar locations on our mirrors.

Included on the LiveCDs:

* Custom PPC kernel (2.4.21-r1) with G4 AltiVec support
* Latest Mac-On-Linux emulator (run MacOS X in a window)
* Gentoo Compressed Loop 2GB live filesystem
* Xfree 4.3 (DRM) with either Gnome2.2.1/Metacity/Openbox or KDE3.1.2
* A complete set of Gentoo 1.4_rc7 PPC stages (for installing Gentoo)
* HFS(+) resizing kernel/parted patch (easily make room for Gentoo)
* IPv6 support out of the box
* Latest stable Mozilla release
* Distcc-enabled gcc toolchain (for distributed PPC compiles)
* Wardriving tools (kismet and airsnort)
* Routing/advanced iptables support
* Apache 2/SSL with php
* Countless other good

Besides apart from SUSE, all the distros you mentioned are X86 only.


Peace out.
