Well, the Lubuntu 20120223 alternate-powerpc booted to command line  
after installation, now the Lubuntu 2012024 desktop-powerpc.iso (http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/lubuntu/daily-live/20120224/precise-desktop-powerpc.iso 
) installer boots to the command prompt during installation. This all  
on a Mac eMac 800Mhz. Trying startx, I get a failure to load nvidia  
and nv modules.
I'll file a bug report.
