There are dozens of distros for Mac. Yellowdog is exclusively Mac (It's
basically Fedora ported to PPC), while other Distros like Debian, and
even Mandrake if you hadn't heard, have builds for Mac. When running
Linux on Mac dual-booted with a more-or-less recent Mac OS you can use
Mac-on-Linux to run Mac OS in a VM-type environment, as if you were
running both OS's simultainously. So, yes, it's easy to port apps to
Linux from Mac OS X and vice versa when you have the source code, but if
you're running Linux on PPC it's often a better alternative to run
Mac-on-Linux so you can run your Mac OS apps natively and Linux apps
natively without needing a reboot.
Cheerio,
