sudo annoys me, so I'd just open up a term and use:

su -l

and then use the root password

You'll have to add the Fedora 5 PPC Extras repository to your
repos.d

Create a new repo as /etc/yum.repos.d/fedora.repo and paste this
in: 

[fedora-extras] 
name=Fedora Extras 
baseurl=http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/extras/5/ppc 
gpgcheck=0 



Or you can download the rpm's and install manually.
