Well I thought I had a clean Lubuntu Desktop Powerpc 12.10 install on
the 20120920 iso.  Not to fast there buddy..Here is the bug link.

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1054009

Anyway I tried the yaboot kernel settings that Adam suggested and got
excellent graphic during the install and everything appeared to being
proper until I started setting up and testing the browser (FF).  Then
the computer froze and opened a tty screen scrolled really quickly and
closed. I also tried a boot up and started Synaptic to maybe try a
different browser same results the computer froze.  Kern.log has some
interesting info maybe for the devs.

Crap, I was just glad to get a side-by-side install with Lubuntu 12.04
which works cleanly.  I may have to stop testing on the PowerBook G4
for awhile full drive testing installs would not be good right now.
Until I get all the logs and such that the devs need ( I don't want to
have to ssh into the computer ) and right now I can use the 12.04
partition to get to the 12.10 install.

I guess I will drop this on the forums too. So that Adam (rsavage) can
see it too.

Back to testing things I know better amd64 & i386 for awhile.
