The installation seems to go well, but when I get to actually

either they have gotten crossed or things have changed. At the

Linux snd-powermac.blackist=yes
or
Linux snd-powermac.blackist=yes video=radeonfb:1280x854-32@60
Neither do more than hang the system, though the get past the

entering the passphrase if the disk is encrypted. Without the

the booting process crashes with the recursive fault error.
Is there anything else I should try to get the machine to boot?

I've been unsuccessfully trying to boot the Live CD for the last
couple
of days. I filed a bug report last night after running ubuntu-
bug. The
url for the report is below. There are files attached to the report
which were automatically added by ubuntu-bug, which may give you
some
idea of what's going on. (This is much above above my knowledge
level.
I'm afraid I'm not even sure if I used ubuntu-bug correctly.)
Anyway, here's the url:

Do you think these problems are driver issues, or lack of memory?
Nio
I have 2GB memory (maximum for any Powermac G4), so it's not a lack
of
memory.
I don't possess the knowledge/Linux experience to diagnose driver
issues.
I can say that the first obvious sign of a problem (to me) is when a
network connection cannot be established. It tries twice, then
times out
and continues without one.
Keith
No you have enough memory.
What installer are you using? Are you trying wifi or wired connection?
Did you try according to this wiki page?

I am only trying to test the daily Live CD, not do an installation. I
have been testing the dailies since Raring, but I haven't always
reported a passed test on the QA tracker page. They have always worked
well (with the right boot parameters to fix the recursive bug and
radeon video problems).
Starting with the 6/21 daily, I have not been able to boot my machine
with the Live CD. (Just to clarify, I always use a USB flash drive to
boot). At this moment, I don't have a spare hard drive to try a full
installation.
