[Bug 560056] Re: Lucid beta 2 unbootable from LiveCD/LiveUSB

 

** Description changed:

  I downloaded the beta 2 ISO from the servers and made a LiveCD for fresh
  install of 10.04. The boot process is carried out until near the end,
  the purple plymouth screen goes away and then all I get is flickering
  screen with lines running across it. I did a few things like "nomodeset"
  and "pci=nomsi" but nothing does. The later one sends the monitor into
  power saving mode and the only way out is a hard reboot.
  
  I tried to drop to the terminal when the screen starts to flicker and
  ran
  
  #dmesg | grep drm
  
  and there are error messages related to my graphics card. Seems like for
  some reason the GPU is being reset every few seconds. See the screen
  shot attached for the exact error messages.
  
  I'm trying to boot Lucid on system which includes:
  
  Interl i5
  ATI Radeon HD4730
  4GB RAM
  Dual monitor
