A few things.  There is a list called unsupported Macs on the Lowendmacs.com
site.  You should get connected there first.

Second.  I used Xpost Facto on my 7600 with Sonnet G3 450 card.  I could not
get any of the versions of Xpostfacto to allow me to install OS X anything
from 10.0.3 to 10.1.  This changed with the release of X post facto 2.2.2.
I got Jaguar and poof it installed without a hitch.  There is an additional
program called L2cache that you might liked o get it reads your G3 cards
cache information and stores it in a file on your OS 9 desktop.  You then
use Xpostfacto like you would your startup disk control panel.  Boot into X
and run the L2cache program and it will create a file for you system in X
that turns on your cache in your G3 card.

These programs are easy to use and they are also free unlike Sonnet that is
charging $29 for a similar product.

Hope this helped.
