at http://www.debian.org/distrib/, there's useful information for initial installs; also, see http://www.debian.org/distrib/ftplist for the mirror nearest you, and dril down through debian/dists/[frozen|slink|whatever]/*/ and find: binary-m68k/ Tue Jun 13 20:51:00 2000 Directory binary-powerpc Wed Apr 7 00:00:00 1999 Symbolic link (looks like the powerpc item is just a link to the old 68k rendition, which is not the best situation in the world for powerpc mac users.) at least we can run a version of debian on our old macs in theory--whether your particular hardware upgrades altered the feasibility or not is something you have to determine on your own... best of luck!
