Also, I'm sure there is Gentoo Linux flavour that runs on power pc 

"mac os x" doesn't tell us much considering Apple has used that name from 2001 to 2019.

Is it Leopard ? Tiger ?

 

Chances are though, you'll need the install disc and pressing the command key on boot to access the boot menu and choose to boot from the CD if you don't have the reset option in your settings.

 

I found this for Leopard :

Do at your own risks. No clue what it would do.
