Can this be done? Or is there a distro that is ppc compatible and will fit on a few floppies? I have an ooooooold powerbook w/ no cdrom, just a floppy, and I really want linux on it. :D

you also have to check on which distro supports your old powerbook. If it is as old as it sounds, you will need to use mklinux (www.mklinux.org)

I think that mklinux can do a network install, but, I have never tried.

you might also have to use a 68k linux, I think that mklinux works on the 68k machine, but, am not totally sure
