Should work...it's a local disk install and the only issue is whether
the installer will recognize the USB disk which I fully expect it to.
You will probably have to expand the contents of the iso file into
actual files on the stick unless you have some skills at loop mounting.

Actually, no.
if you are using the normal anaconda leave it as an ISO on the USB disk.

And I think Craig may have hit on a plan earlier, install just a base system,
and then once the system is installed come back and install the other things
you want using yum.
As far as I understand the F8 and F9 setups, the DVD (or it's iso) can be used
as a yum repo, so later install can use what you have already downloaded.

have a 4G stick, it's just a question of whether or not the mac would
recognise that it was there.

Good luck...may be tough to find DVD image broken down for ppc. Too bad
you're like 8,000 miles away because in my office, where I have all the
repositories local, it takes less than an hour.
Anyway, once you get it installed and if you struggle getting X going,
let me know because I can help with iMac G3.
