It did boot reliably and without error BUT there was not much of a system as far as I could tell as it seemed to be as barebone as it could get, basically only the terminal and vi, eg. no vim, no nano, no desktop and such,...

I now strongly suspect this was due to the manifest issue which caused alternate builds to be incomplete and having missing/ broken packets. The ppc desktop build however (which only became available later after the alternate build) was not affected, I tested the image and live boot worked!

So this apparently is a duplicate of those:
