which kernel should I download?

hi! I am new here, recently got an old ibook from an ex-colleague because she 'could not use word in it' (sigh, but at the same time very happy with the ibook). So after some hesitations, I finally decided to give it a go (I do not even have an mac os 9 install cd just in case) I downloaded the w

If i had to choose i'd give kernel-image-2.6.6-power3 - Linux kernel image for 2.6.6-power3 a try. But i like to compile my own kernels :) if you'd like that, rsync the source from source.mvista.com with; rsync -avz --delete source.mvista.com::linuxppc::linuxppc-2.5-benh /usr/src/2.6/ (first mkd
