Comment 6 for bug 133372

Thanks. I'll try to keep my eyes open should it happen again.

On a different issue, I haven't had time to check the threads for
similar problems, or report this bug
but yesterday Edubuntu 7.04 for PPC (G3 to G5) failed to install at all
on my iBook (Clamshell type
with a 366mghzCPU). I downloaded the live CD version and the live CD
bootup would fail to
complete booting. I would get to the user logon which said ubuntu user
will logon in 10 seconds.
Well, in 10 seconds it would begin booting the ubuntu user and when the
desktop just starts to appear, the
screen goes blank and 15 seconds later the logon process repeats. I
could not logon to create my own
user name and although I could only boot into failsafe mode, any attempt
to add a user resulted in having to
use sudo. Assuming the real root is off as in the Mac I tried but here
using the ubuntu user's blank password
resulted in a wrong password or username error message. I couldn't even
get as far as changing ubuntu's
password in order to succeed in using sudo becasue a message advises I
need to use sudo in order to
change ubuntu's password! Classic chicken and egg dilemna - which came
first? But in reverse because I couldn't get
to first base. The same CD successfully booted and installed on a 350 MH
iMac (Indigo) but that installation fails near
the end of the boot process. Just how many people are working on the
PPC version (G3s to G5s) now that intel Macs have come out? I had been
hoping to use Edubuntu on our school's slew of legacy iMacs but it looks
like 6.10 Edgy Eft? is the last version that will work well on them. I
really want to be able to use Kino but it seems Kino doesn't work well
if at all on
anything less than 7.04 Fiesty Fawn (sic?). Are the codecs that the
intel i386 version of Ubuntu uses the same as those that
the PPC version uses or are they platform specific?

If you think this is worth posting or pursuing, please do. I really
don't have time to retry downloading a fresh copy of the
same CD for the PPC. The last time I did it, I had downloaded and burned
it on a Debian sarge system that has since gone
kaput.

I would imagine that there are a lot of people dissatisfied with Mac OSX
Jaguar and with no budget to buy Mac OSX Panther to replace it with.
Edubuntu offers alot more open source software than Panther does without
costing anything but after experiencing the difference between Edubuntu
6.10 and 7.04 (i386) I would prefer Edubuntu 7.04 over Edubuntu 6.10
forthe PPC on the iMacs at my school..
