I had linux (Ubuntu 12.04) on my old PowerBook G4 12″ installed, but it was 'a bit' to slow so I started looking for other distributions, and played with ‘CRUX PPC’ around. I messed up during the installation, following some tutorial movie. (Changed some settings, basically I had no Idea what I'm doing...) (This Tutorial http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E0c_SR7hyyo)
So I broke up and thought to install ‘Lubuntu 12.04′ for ppc, but now during boot i get this screen:
Any Ideas what I've done?

I've reset NVRAM in 'Open Firmware'
I've reset the G4 (What ever that mean's)
still the Ubuntu 12.04; Kubuntu 12.04; Lubuntu 12.04 and Lubuntu 12.10 live CD was not working.
Then I've downloaded the Ubuntu 8.04 .iso ....and.. Just now I install Ubuntu.. I have no Idea what really the problem was.. the only thing now is that I actually want a light OS, Ubuntu is to much for this old PPC

So I'll spend some other night's playing around..
