Tell me if you want to do that. And plan for a delay because there is
some "paper work" to be done before; mainly by other people, so it might
(or might not) take a moment.

Honestly I don't know. https://wiki.debian.org/ppc64el tells

	Debian/ppc64el requires, at minimum, a POWER8 processor machine.
	Although Debian was initially bootstrapped on a POWER7 set of
	servers. this class of server is not supported anymore, and you
	are not able to run Debian/ppc64el on a POWER7 processor without
	hitting an illegal instruction fault.

Hm https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/POWER8 tells:

	Systems based on POWER8 became available from IBM in June
	2014. Systems and POWER8 processor designs made by other
	OpenPOWER members was available in early 2015.

So I think this rules out a G5.

https://wiki.debian.org/ppc64el/Installation mentions you can run this
under qemu however.
