You may want to try entering some boot options to get around this. At the Live CD menu screen, press F6. Then type in:

acpi=off noapic nolapic

There are other boot options to try, see here:

If this doesn't work, you should provide details of your hardware (make/model).

That bug is practically the same as Bug Nr. 178896. See correspondence
under 178896.
I could solve it with the help of Mario.
Main problem was apparently concentrated on clocksource.
By making clocksource=jiffies when starting I could run the new version
and I still operate today with version 8.04 LTS.
Regards.
