Unhappy how to install centos 4.3 on powerbook g4?


Hi,
I have an apple powerbook G4 and i am using Mac Os X but i need to install on it centos 4.3. I worked a lot with centos but on my centrino laptop. i have no idea how to install centos on my powerbook G4. If anyone can at least tell me how to run the installation on the powerbook g4 i would be quite thankful.

Don't quote me on this, but....

I just checked the online installation manual at the CentOS website, and it mentions Intel, Amd, and some IBM systems architectures, but no mention of Apple architectures. From that, I assume that means it won't install on powerbook.
