You'll need a nfs server for booting a macppc.

You should have a look at INSTALL.macppc [0], it says:

        boot enet:,ofwboot /bsd.rd
                (netboot from a pre-configured dhcp/tftp/nfs
                server; "ofwboot" will be obtained from the tftp server,
                while "bsd.rd" will be obtained from the NFS server,
                as specified by the "next-server" and "root-path" dhcp
                options)
