Bootcamp is for running Windows natively on the mac. It is only for Intel macs. Power Mac G5's all use Power PC cpu's and cant run Windows natively.

The only way to run Windows on a Power PC mac is in a virtual environment...I dont know anything about them virtual environments(VMWare etc), never tried it. In this day and age it's a bit pointless now also, giving how cheap pc's are to buy/build.
