This is one of the older ones. Pre-intel.
All G5 computers are pre-intel.
Which G5 model is it?

I'm trying to get this iMac G5 to start from an installer disc in

little blinking white square in the upper left corner. It feels like
the damned thing has gone Win 3.0 on me. What can be done in this
enviroment?
There were altogether eight different models of iMac G5. You did
not indicate your specific model.
For my own iMac G5 (2.1GHz, 20", iSight), the Install Disc 1 includes
its Apple Hardware Test. The AHT ReadMe file clearly states that
"You may be able to start up your computer with Apple Hardware Test
even if the machine will not start up under the Mac OS." You can
access AHT by holding down the Option key while booting from the
Install Disc.
