Hi Stephen, In your place, I would take the following route:
In OS 9: (1) download BootX from http://penguinppc.org/historical/benh/BootX_1.2.2.sit, and install it, (2) download Debian kernel and initrd from http://ftp.nl.debian.org/debian/dists/etch/main/installer-powerpc/current/images/powerpc/netboot/vmlinux and http://ftp.nl.debian.org/debian/dists/etch/main/installer-powerpc/current/images/powerpc/netboot/initrd.gz, and place them into :System Folder:Linux Kernels, (3) place the Debian netinst CD into a CD drive, (4) Run BootX application (alternatively install BootX extension, and reboot). (5) When Bootx asks you to choose your OS, before doing so, press on Options, and select the initrd (Use specified RAM disk) (with BootX extension variant, you have to be careful to stop the clock from counting down, this can be done by writing a space into More kernel arguments field). (6) Press on Save to prefs, in case you don't succeed on first try, and need to try again with a different command line, or the CD in another drive. (7) Press on Linux, and hope the best.
