The live CD hangs during boot.

I've removed the quiet and splash boot options and just before the "Black screen of death", I see:

Starting K Display manager ....
Starting Avahi ...

Running on Sony Vaio PCG-K215Z laptop

Note. This has an ATI Mobility Radeon 9200 graphics card, which caused problems when I upgraded to Gutsy. I eventually fixed by downgrading the driver (xserver-xorg-video-ati) to the Fiesty version: 1:6.6.3-2ubuntu6.

Obviously no such option is available when booting from a Live CD.
