Option-F1 to get back to the installer, and tell it to go ahead and reboot.
-When the machine reboots the BootX dialog should come up straight away. Hoary seemed to find it's own rootfs but Breezy doesn't, so type "root=/dev/sda6" in the kernel parameters box. Press tab so
the Linux button is highlighted then click on the “Save as default” button. Then click Linux.

!Other hints
If you want a more OSX-like desktop install KDE (either download it in synaptic or install from a kubuntu CD). I haven't figured out how to theme Gnome to look and behave like OSX yet.
If you only have a one-button mouse, F11 and F12 on the keyboard will act as the middle and right mouse buttons.
