The biggest problem with running linux on a ibook is simply that as far as 
I know there's no way to get the broadcom airforce chipset on the wireless 
card working under linux on the mac. On x86 you can use ndis driver loader 
or something similar. in the larger powerbooks there's a pc-card slot so 
you can use that. the older power/i/books had the airport which was an 
avaya/agere prism based chipset.
