Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: debian-installer
With the Kubuntu PowerPC port install disks on an iBook G3 600MHz with
384Mb.
1) The Live CD fails to boot at all -- it hangs up at "Loading kernel"
2) With the alternate CD a system is installed, but when the time comes
to reboot the system shows the Kubuntu boot splash screen, but the
progress bar halts at about 1 or 2 pixels wide (i.e. first step).
Eventually (sorry I don't have an estimate of how long) it drops into an
emergency ash shell with an "(initramfs) #" prompt.
At a guess I'd say that the initrd generation is failing to generate a
usable initrd.
The Fiesty Live disk works fine and installs a usable system, so it's
unlikely to be a problem with the machine.
