Bug Description

Can't boot into Live image into X on daily (04-16-2016) 16.04.

I'm using a Asus UX501VW laptop with and igpu and nvidia.
When I start the live image regularly I get the normal ubuntu splash screen which hangs after a while.

Removing the quiet and splash options from the grub bootloader results in a booting system bug no X.

Removing the quiet and splash options and adding nomodeset results in a borked X screen, see the attached image.

Seems fixed by adding the following to the grub boot:

modprobe.blacklist=nouveau i915.preliminary_hw_support=1
