The script that should locate the live fs (find_live.pl) can't obviously
handle hfs cd's. I had the same problem and I had to  manually mount 
the cd in order to go on with the installation:

# mount -t hfs /dev/hdc /mnt/cdrom
# boot_live.pl
   (now you should have a fs under /live, check with ls -l /live)
# start_installer
   (this starts the xinstaller)

I was running into a lot of trouble installing this on a iMac DV. Here's how I managed it:

- Download a disk image (preferrably from one of the mirrors, it has been reported the Swiss mirror is quite fast)
- There's an error in the first line of yaboot.conf (in the System folder) - you have to add n before the word "Press"
- Burn a CD with Adaptec toast: Drop the disk image to Toast, open the Data folder and replace yaboot.conf with an updated version
- Copy the System, live and software folder to a boot partition (must be HFS) and copy all files from the "Linux kernel" folder , too (directly on the drive, without the folder)
- One problem I didn't deal with, but try it anyway: open the System folder on your boot partition to activate it and select this harddrive as startup disk (control panels)
- make sure there's no HFS+ partition (or you will end up with an error)
- boot from the CD (hold down the 'c' key while starting)
- you should get into the graph installer
- I repartitioned the hd creating a swap (AP UX), a root ('/') and a home partition (both Linux PPC)
- don't touch the already created boot partition or all data will be erased
- always reboot with the CD until installation is finished

There's definitely a lack of documentation and I plan to set up the system on my other macs also (a Powerbook G3 and a beige Tower) - I plan to write a documentation later, if nobody shows up with it first..

So far - I'm now ready for the next challenge (setting up my cable modem :)
