Comment:
I just installed breezy on a powermac 8600 w/64M ram and it worked.
Then I upgraded to dapper using apt-get and it won't boot 2.6.15-18
because it freezes the mouse pointer after clicking the bootX linux
button.  I got the kernel source which was 2.6.15-5-ubuntu1, fixed it
using .config so it would build, made initrd for mesh, sd_hd and mace
and it did the same thing.  I don't know how to patch kernels for bootX
support but I hope this confirms the bug.
