A few things to note with this current version of Ubuntu. The partition manager has a bug in it that was fixed in the x86 version but not on the PowerPC version. Apparently, it has a problem writing the new partitions to the hard drive. I've used another live disc to recreate the partitions I needed to install Ubuntu, rebooted into the Ubuntu Alternate Installation Disc, and configured the partitions. Once I did that, it was finally able to write the partitions to disk. Also, when you burn the disc from the ISO image, make sure that you do it at a low-enough burn speed, otherwise you'll get errors even if the image downloaded fine.
