Public bug reported:

Machine:  eMac G4 PPC - 1.12 Ghz G4 processor, 1 Gig RAM 80 Gig hard
drive. Using entire internal HD for installation of Lubuntu Alternate
PPC 12.10

Installation of yaboot loader failed. Instruction was to check
/var/log/syslog.

Attempted to install yaboot again /dev/sda2. Attempt failed.

Continued the install without the boot loader

Was able to reboot the system with arguements from boot

/boot/vmlinux  /dev/sda3

Boot of gui failed, but <cntl-alt-F1> succeeded.

I was unable to report the bug fron the computer where it occurred.

Ubuntu-bug --save=/var/log/syslog

yielded only "No pending crash reports.

Also attempted <Ubuntu-bug ubiquity>  and <ubuntu-bug installer> neither
command succeeded.
