Hi, I am trying to install Ubuntu 14.04.04 and I observed that same problem appears. Below are the observations: 1. If we create PRePboot ,swap and / after setting up partitions we get the error "Failed to remove conflicting files. The installer needs to remove operating system files from the install target, but was unable to do so. The install cannot continue". ????????????????????????? [!!] Partition disks ??????????????????????????? ? ? ? This is an overview of your currently configured partitions and mount ? ? points. Select a partition to modify its settings (file system, mount ? ? point, etc.), a free space to create partitions, or a device to ? ? initialize its partition table. ? ? ? ? ? ?

If we create only swap and / after setting up partitions we get the error "No PowerPC PReP boot partition is found", if we still continue the installation, installation will be successful but system will not be able to bootup as there is no "boot partition".
