Check to see how LinuxPPC or YellowDog is started. If it's anything like 68k, there is a 'booter' application that you start, which then bootstraps the machine, loads the kernel and starts the Linux boot process. One thing for sure, you will need to have sep. partitions for the Linux & MacOS installs.
