Public bug reported:

I just tried to install Ubuntu Dapper Drake on my purple 400 MHz iMac
but the install process fails. To reproduce:

- turn power on
- put dapper ppc cd into slot
- give 'live video=ofonly' option at boot prompt
- wait 5 minutes for install cd to settle and X to crash with garbled setup 
dialog
- switch to another virtual terminal
- check the logs
I copied the logs onto an USB stick so I could check them out on another 
machine becuase the system did not live for very long and froze completelly 
within 10 minutes... Some thing is very wrong with the install CD. I got the 
following in /var/log/gdm0.log:
