SuSE Linux PowerPC: Version 7.3
ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/ppc/kernel/2.4.16/vmlinux.install.elf-newpmac
Once downloaded, copy the kernel to the Linux boot partition you have created with the program "Configure drives"
and rename the kernel to "install".
Now boot via the open firmware by pressing command+option+o+f
during the boot process and enter the following at the open firmware prompt:
boot hd:9,install
(9 refers to the partition number of the boot partition on your first hard disk and should be
adapted to your system).
During the boot process, there should be no CD in the CD drive while the kernel scans the ide bus.
As soon as the CD is needed, YAST will inform you accordingly and then you can insert the CD1.
(Thanks to Th.Capricelli for the tip)
Proceed with the installation as described on the manual.
After having completed the installation, download the kernel k_deflt.rpm and the modutils.rpm from our ftp server.

ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/ppc/kernel/modutils.rpm
Both packages can be installed on Linux with the command:
rpm -Uhv /path_to_file/file.rpm
Then restart the boot loader by executing: lilo
