Hmm, has been quite a while since i used one, but isn't the centris a
first generation PowerPC? M-68 Linux seems to be the wrong architecture then ;-)
Centris was the consumer oriented box, what was the "real" Mac name? Was that a
6400? Or is it of the 61xx series (those are MkLinux only boxes, i fear).
Have a look at http://penguinppc.org/projects/hw/pmac.shtml

 Maybe you should contact YellowDog Linux -- they sell a Mac/PPC specific distro
 (aren't they in northern Colorado?).
