This problem seems fixed now after a few lots of reboots. It seems that whenever the Live starts with my ppc NOT connected to a valid network, I get a few errors about gnome and daemon and it's settings. However when Live starts while hooked up to a valid network, it starts fine and the installer starts fine as well.
