The Radius 81/110 is a clone of Apple's Power Mac 8100, according to Low
End Mac:
<http://www.lowendmac.com/radius/110.html>
You might be able to install Linux on the Radius as if it were an 8100.
The Yellow Dog hardware page implies that the 8100 is *barely* supported
-- which in reality, probably means unsupported:

<http://nubus-pmac.sourceforge.net/>
You might have better luck by looking at MKLinux:

I once got MKLinux to install on a Power Mac 7500. I got as far as the
command line (never got X to work), but that was more than I expected.
Good luck!
Best wishes,
Clint
