The Qt autopartition logic uses DiskMan's count to create new partitions on the disk when "use available space" is selected. However, libparted doesn't count any Apple_Free at the end of the disk as a real partition. This causes installation to fail with a disk inconsistency error.

Sean from Action Retro reported this bug (but it has been encountered by multiple others since release).
Checked this out today - the live environment runs great on my PowerMac G4! Unfortunately I wasn't able to get it to install using the installer. I've attached some logs in case it's helpful:
...2023-12-11T12:41:50.955 log /etc/horizon/installfile:26: info: svcenable: enabling service sysklogd in runlevel 'default'(1/1) Installing grub-ieee1275 (2.12_rc1-r1)OK: 1 MiB in 1455 packagesInstalling for powerpc-ieee1275 platform.grub-install: error: ofpathname: not found.2023-12-11T12:41:54.171 log chroot: error: exited abnormally with status 12023-12-11T12:41:54.171 log /etc/horizon/installfile:18: error: bootloader: failed to install GRUB2023-12-11T12:41:54.171 log bootloader: error: The HorizonScript failed to execute: Check the log file for more details.2023-12-11T12:41:54.171 log internal: error: Script failed.

is where I manually partitioned using mac-fdisk, and the install makes it to the end but then fails at the last moment
