Post #192,333 by folkert 1/31/05 12:50:28 AM Reply	Should Mention, Ubuntu PPC works as advertised I have given away quite a few pre-packaged ones. Install on the ones we tried.

When I try to burn a CD, I get a segmentation fault. I used both Disk Utility and the command line (hdiutil). The image seems to mount all right, though.
