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)
