There is a set of 7 patches available sent to the linuxppc mailing list on 08 March 2007, which have to be applied to Linux 2.6.20. If you're interested in kernel development and/or adding new features, please take a look at Linux Kernel Development.

To run linux, you need to use the Linux Bootloader available right now. To compile the kernel, you need to set up a [cross compiler] toolchain (unless you already have another PowerPC Linux machine).
