Everything seemed to proceed smoothly until partitioning, where the guided partitioner seemed to do the right thing except for the small bootstrap partition yaboot needs on newworld macs (iirc). I was forced to attempt to configure LVM (even when I dropped to manual/ expert configuration), but it said no partitions could be found, and I could go no further in the install (I tried reiserfs initially and labeled the partition "linux," then left it ext3/ "untitled" with the same results). Overall, the installer looks promising, so I'll probably hold off on linux until it works. -- Randall
