I have had a ton of problems installing Lubuntu on my IBook G3(http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2100455). I recently changed my media from CD-RW to CD-R. I burned the lubuntu-12.10-alternate-powerpc.iso to the disc with Infra Recorder at x8, and booted my G3. Last time i did this it would apparently try and boot from the CD but would just skip it and boot Mac OS X 10.3.9. Now when i try it I hear the CD drive spin then it stops and goes to a white screen for a bit(sometimes quickly flashing black) then it changes to the flashing globe icon for a few minutes and finally goes to the dreaded flashing folder/question mark/finder. As I am writing this I am burning it again with Nero 12 following this guide (http://www.ehow.com/how_6179611_burn-mac-compatible-disc-nero.html) and if that doesnt work Im gonna use IMGBurn and then Cyberlink Power2Go 8.
EDIT:
Tried it with all my burning software and still get the same problem.
