You might want to also try the mailing lists linked from
<http://www.debian.org/ports/powerpc/>, for example the list archives
at <http://lists.debian.org/debian-powerpc/>.  One of the posts
<http://lists.debian.org/debian-powerpc/2010/07/msg00061.html>
suggests Squeeze should work.  I see there is an out-of-date
<http://sowerbutts.com/linux-mac-mini/> for Sarge, but it may still be
useful.

Good luck.
