I can't make this stuff up

Maybe there was something funky about the hardware in the iBook G4 but I remember installing Yellow Dog Linux on my old PowerBook G4 without too much trouble.

It was years ago so I don't recall the details but it was definitely possible and not terribly difficult.

I had Yellow Dog Linux installed on my iBook G4 without issues ... not sure what OP is going on about.

That's what I figured.

If you want a challenge, try installing Arch on an 12" PowerBook G4. I spent three days one winter break in college getting that on there.
