I added usbinput to the default hooks-array in mkinitcpio.conf. This should avoid panics during init on certain types of machines (e.g. iBook G4)
Keep testing! :)

Tried an install on my Powerbook G4 (PowerBook5,4). The setup script worked right up until it was time to start the bootloader. The script choked on the attempt to install the bootloader. Judging by the VC5 output, the problem was that mkofboot was asking for y/N confirmation on formatting the bootstrap partition, and the script wasn't delivering.
Quickinst worked like a charm, as always.
Summary: Setup FTP... failed on installing bootloader (mkofboot/yaboot.) QuickInst FTP... worked for me.
