From the FreeBSD homepage: FreeBSD is an advanced BSD UNIX operating system for the Intel compatible (x86), DEC Alpha, and PC-98 architectures. (In other words no powerpc) But NetBSD does. Where their motto is "Of course it runs on NetBSD" See www.netbsd.org/Ports/macppc or http://www.netbsd.org/Ports/macppc/models.html OpenBSD development code will run on G4's (presumably G3's) but not the powerbook yet.
