Can I install YellowDog Linux on my Powermac 5400/200 without also installing Mac OS?

Hi,

No you can't because you need to use Mac OS for start the Linux Kernel with Boot X

Nice week end,

I got it running on an iMac w/o Mac OS installed just fine.

Yes. Ive done it myself... Just make sure you can boot from a CD (turn off open firmware password through your leopard install disk first) also totally wipe the HD you want to use and make sure you dont format it as 'journaled' (if you want to install osx then partition the disk first and just format the osx partition as jornaled like normal
