Yellowdog can be downloaded from the Mac User Group mirror at:
http://mirrors.wamug.org.au/yellowdog/ - Not sure about WAIX
  But version 4 of Yellowdog has just come out, you'd be better
searching for a mirror of that.
There are plenty of packages available. Debian has a lot of packages
but a lot of messing around is required.

Yellowdog is based on Redhat, and uses RPMs. So not all Redhat rpms
are going to work, but a lot do. Anyway you can always download
xxxxxx.src.rpms and build them for Yellowdog, easy enough.
