You may want to try Fink first: http://fink.sourceforge.net/ There is also Darwin Ports: http://darwinports.opendarwin.org/
And if you would rather dual boot Linux, there are a few different PowerPC distro's including debian:

And YellowDog Linux:

There are probably others as well, but those are the options that I know of. Fink is probably the quickest, easiest method to get ethereal onto your PowerBook.
Good luck.

Does anyone have any information on getting a PowerBook G4 to run on
both Linux and MacOS X? I want to use ethereal and all of those linux
programs but I am not very linux savey and I wanted to know if anyone
had any detailed install instructions and how to install the programs. I
don’t understand how to compile, etc.
