Linux distribution question


Hi, I am looking for a linux distro for PPC (G5) and that would fit and boot from a USB flash key. Is there such a thing? If there is, where can I get it?

Thanks,
RMSe17

Hello,
I didn't find any PPC USB Distros, but I found a site listing Distro's that run on PPC.
http://www.penguinppc.org/about/distributions.php

I'm only slightly familiar with gentoo, I have no experience with the rest. I know you can make gentoo small, so you might be able to build it to fit on a USB drive.

DSL (Damn Small Linux) is built to run on USB, but from what I can see, is not PPC compatabile.
