The closest you're going to get to FreeBSD is the Mac OS X beta
that's been released. I have no idea what it would take to convince
the thing not to start the Mac GUI and start X instaead. I'd live to
try if someone would loan me one, though :-).

Other than that, try NetBSD <URL: http://www.netbsd.org/ > or OpenBSD
<URL: http://www.openbsd.org/ >. Both support PPC platforms, if not
the G4. If that fails, try the Linux distros.
