I have a G3 iMac which I'm trying to run Ubuntu on and when I get to the boot prompt it loads and then just sits there with a blank screen.

Search for easy install on g3.
That fixes it for everything up to heron.
Heron seems to have a seperate issue with shutting off after yaboot.
Still working on what that is.
Actually feisty will install without any fuss on a g3.
Don't know yet what happens if you upgrade.
