Some PPC images were oversized for a while, but Knot2 is known to be good.

There is one mention of boot problems in the release notes:

 * The new version of usplash seems to cause the desktop CD to fail
   to boot for some people, if you experience that, removing "splash"
   from the kernel command line might help.

Are you able to tell if it gets to the first boot screen at all? (we 
will soon have a helpful sound for that, btw).
