We blocked release of the powerpc iso for beta2 because of this bug in #ubuntu-release, so there is no beta-2 image :)

For the net boot iso, (maybe because of the virtualized nic?) no network device is found and errors out there too.

Note this is trivially reproducible on a ppc64le host with:

qemu-system-ppc64 -enable-kvm -machine pseries,accel=kvm,usb=off -cpu host -smp cores=2,threads=1 -m 8G -no-reboot -device spapr-vscsi -display none -nographic -cdrom yakkety-server-powerpc.iso -drive file=/path/to/qcow/file,cache=unsafe -net nic -net user -boot dc
