At the time I wrote to the list, the only available PPC ISO was an old
daily, NOT the most current. Also, there still has never been an
official release build of Oneiric. At this time, I see 12.04 in the
dailies. So I'd be happy to test that but I'd like to write instructions
for Oneiric. Any chance of getting an official release build?

Hi,
Sorry for the delay.
I didn't understand if you tested the last PPC ISO from daily build or not ? If
it's working, it can be considered as an unofficial ISO.
Also, it's possible to make it official for 12.04, but we need people available
to test Alpha and Beta ISO, during ISO testing process.

I have no problems mentioning it as a community build, but Julien ıs
better placed to check if it would cause problems on our 'Get Lubuntu'
page.

i know we've talked briefly about deferring any ppc builds but i
was hoping (if not for any other reason, but to help further
development of the unofficial and unsupported port) to post up on
the wiki my methodology to install and get current using the most
current ppc build at
http://cdimages.ubuntu.com/lubuntu/daily-live/20111011/.
all in favor, say aye. all against, nay.
if worse comes to worst and we'd rather not suggest ppc on the
wiki, then i can always throw something on ubuntu forums but i
personally tend to give more weight to the wiki than the forums.
i'll add that i've been running mintppc as well and it is
fantastic out of the box-- even better than debian ppc. i'm hoping
to hack into the config files and see what's under the hood and
see if i can't re-create it. possibly i might even be able to
create an unattend file (mintppc install involves booting the
debian netboot cd and issuing "auto url=mintppc.org
<http://mintppc.org>" at the yaboot prompt) to make things even
easier. if anyone's interested at least!
lastly, is there anything i can do to help with the ppc builds?
despite canonical's lack of support for ppc, it is the perfect
platform for a lightweight linux like lubuntu, so i'm motivated to
help make it happen.
