If you're an idiot, yes.

Otherwise, Yellowdog.

Burn the alternative install CD and use that to install it. I really don't recommend the Live CD.

I tried it four months ago, and even if you can get Yellow Dog to work, it has serious graphical flaws and the fans run at max speed nonstop. psyduck;

Fedora Core is the only one that worked for me on my G5, and it still had that fan problem.

If software doesn't work with hardware it was made for, it's the software developer's fault.
