Mac-on-Linux?

I will try this, but I have a couple of questions as I reboot:

1) Should I not, then, be able to boot from CD with --cdboot and 
install the OS via MOL? I have tried to do this, but I doesn't work any 
better.

2) I'm not entirely sure that I have an "old world" Mac. How does one 
determine this?  According to this page: 
http://developer.apple.com/technotes/tn/tn1167.html the New World ROM 
began with iMac. I have a Blue & White G3, which, I believe (but maybe 
no?) came out after the original iMac.


Thanks! (I'll find out soon if this works...)
