Good luck.
I had some luck with getting a grapical screen to login. But it did not accept my password for login. Also the guest account did not do anything.
I then got with Ctrl+Alt+F1 to tty1 and could login as before.
Question: Where does the booting process look for drivers? I notized in the running down initializing script that the drivers for kernel 3.10.15 were searched for. Not found! But I started with cf0:vmlinux-3.17. Were they expected in /boot?

Drivers (kernel modules) are in the directory
/lib/modules/<kernel version>.

I had a look into Trusty on x86. There you find in /lib/modules/3.13.0-41-generic/kernel/ all the different drivers.
Is it sufficient to copy as follows:
cp /boot/3.17.0-4_A-EON_AmigaOne_X1000_Nemo to /lib/modules/ ?
And similar for the the kernel 3.18 ?
A hint please.

There are not as much drivers included as in Trusty on x86. It seems to me as if there are not all necessary driver included in the kernel 3.17 or 3.18. I have fotographed the screen after booting. see attachement.

The most of the drivers are included in the kernel itself.

The command " sudo apt-get install lightdm-gtk-greeter" was not successfull and could not be found. Answer was, that apt cannot find the greeter. LightDM and could be installed and reconfigured.
I then did the same command on my x86-trusty and received the anwer: allready installed.
What now?

Reading the latest messages of this thread, it looks a little bit hard to install a 14.04 LUbuntu.
Xeno74, do you have (easy) advices, please ?
Thank you

ubuntu MATE 14.04:
Quote Adam Smith:
Just a warning for PowerPC 14.04 users, according to a couple of posts on ubuntuforums, running an update will break your system. This is probably due to the mate ppa not containing PowerPC packages. It is probably best to disable it before running an update.
