Ah, I see. Probably not then, as in 68ks you have to boot MacOS first. If you could get another boot drive on the system, then yes, you could get into Linux and then format it. But you have to be able to get to MacOS first to boot into Linux. Also helpful to have network/internet access on the machine, as it makes downloading the necessary bits a lot easier.
