[Bug 1043066] Re: Test Case dwi001- Full disk install PPC Alternate- 12.10. Yaboot installation failure

[Ron Mitchell]

I misunderstood. My apologies.

Attempted install from the live disk of Sept 13 with the postinstall
file in place. Got an installer crash Bug 1051770 refers. This will
probably end up as yet another duplicate, but I thought I better file
it, as Apport might provide information as to what is going on.
