Well an LC III is an old nubus computer, so the standard debian kernel won't work at all. You'll need to look for a kernel that supports your nubus hardware, which may be difficult, I certainly don't know where you'll find one. You'll probably have better luck asking at debian-powerpc. -- David Roundy http://civet.berkeley.edu/droundy/
