I'm just trying out the alternate installer and that has yaboot options
for free only. I could swear the live cd doesn't though. When the
install has finished I'll have another look at the yaboot options.

Title:
No 'Free Software Only' or Language selection options for PowerPC
Status in “gfxboot” package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
I'm trying to complete the "Free Software Only in Ubuntu Desktop
powerpc" testcase, but I don't have a clue how to select this. Is
this part of ubiquity, or is it a grub menu? This is what is written
in the testcase:
1. Start your machine with the install media in place
2. When you see the aubergine screen with an icon at the bottom, press any key to get the menu
3. Select your language and press Enter
4. Press F6 and use the down arrow to get to Free software only and press Enter
I'm assuming the aubergine screen is a grub menu (PowerPC doesn't have
grub). I can only select a language when installing (I'm not given an
option for just a live session). When the system boots after the
yaboot prompt I don't have any menu to select a language or free
software.
I need to run the installer for another architecture to see what
PowerPC is missing.
