http://www.beatjapan.org/mirror/www.be.com/support/guides/beosreadylist_ppc.html

it will work with ppc750 series processors

Also note: "Some 8600/250 and 9600/250 are incompatible with the BeOS. It seems there are two versions of the logic board for these particular systems, one that works, one that doesn't." - Be's site
according to here:

i'm going to risk it, if it dosn't work, i'll probably install darwin 7.0.1 via xpostfacto
