Answer 1

The distro you are looking for is demolinux their website is
www.demolinux.org

Answer 2

PPC Linux is for the Mac their website is www.linuxppc.org

I had heard about linuxppc some time ago, but I just read about
demolinux last night in the March/April issue of 'Maximum Linux' they
now have a section dedicated to ppc I believe. If you are going to the
3-7 meeting I will have my copy of the magazine there.
