I am getting this on both upgrade to 10.04 and on live cd. On the
upgrade I can fall back to the old kernel and it works fine. It's just
annoying that I have to select a different option in GRUB.

I have tried a "nomodeset" option to try to boot the live cd, but
still get the same problem. This was suggested on an Ubuntu forum.

Hope that helps
