Just so other PPC users can see what Linux/BSD distros are available for the architecture, I’ve made a list of those I know about. If you know of a PPC Linux/BSD distro and don’t see it on my list, add it in a comment below. That way, this post can become a good resource for others to use.
Yellow Dog
Mandrake
Gentoo
Debian
SuSE (Not sure if they still support PPC)
MkLinux (Not sure how up-to-date it is)
Crux
ROCK
Slackintosh (a hobby Slackware port)
PLD (Polish distro but with English support too)
HOLON (Japanese distro)
Vine (Another Japanese distro)
OpenBSD
NetBSD
FreeBSD (Not sure how much support there is)
GNU-Darwin
