I have exactly the same problem as Eric.  G4 dual processor, but made 
three partitions (OS X, 9.2.2, and linux).  The graphical installer 
would not work (someone else noted the blue screen with an X on it that 
would do nothing and I have the same situation).  The text based 
installer seems to install, but I cannot get it to boot using either 
open firmware or yaboot.  The screen goes black and nothing will happen.

Any help would be appreciated.
