Bug description:
  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

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