I have tried different versions/flavors to install. While results are different one thing is common that *you can not install from a live CD.*
I will try to give you more detailed reports. Below is the story of one of the attempts:

Ubuntu 8.04.1 AMD 64 Desktop (Alternate install):

1. Install is smooth.
2. OS doesn't boot. "caps" indicator keeps blinking.
2. Now I boot the machine with kernel options splash and quiet removed, I see kernel panic with following messages in the end
RIP [ffffffff8036ddb0] vgacon_cursor+0x10/0x1f0
RSP <ffffffff80635f78>
CR2 000000000000004c
end trace 2ce005c0852e264f
Kernel panic - not syncing: Aiee, killing interrupt handler

Next I would try intrepid alpha 6 (32 bit) alternate install

Thanks as always
