I got the tarball and used a CD Boot to extract it to a new partition 
as per the instructions.  Since then, however, I have hit up against a 
few problems.

1) I found that the "boot -s" command failed to boot the system in 
Singe User Mode.  I had to go online and look up the "set single_boot" 
command in order to get it working.

2) My ethernet card is not registering.  I don't know if there just 
isn't a driver, or if it's failing to bind.  I'm using a G4/400, and 
the only indication that shows up in dmesg is this:

pci2: <network, ethernet> at device 11.0 (no driver attached)

Everything else seemed to work pretty well though.  Keep up the good 
work!
