Well, I went out and got the PPC Lubuntu and PPC Ubuntu Mate, got them onto a DVD and put them into the Powerbook. I was surprised as Lubuntu booted as did Ubuntu Mate. But the thing was, the screen background had a very strange pattern to it. I played around a bit but both of those distros would lock up. I then put in Yellowdog, it also booted up without those weird patterns, didn't have too much time to fiddle around with it, maybe later.
Ya, I guess if Yellowdog is not supported that might not be the way to go since I'd be doing things by myself.
For the time being, I am going to hold off a bit on the PPC stuff as I know I'd be fiddling around quite a bit with the PPC stuff to get that going, I think it's better for me to if I can get LInuxLite onto my Macbook first.
But I did want to thank you folks who responded for providing the links and suggestions. BTW, I do a lot of searching for stuff by myself, I just asked folks here as I thought you would be more up on things, you were and that did save time.
