Hi! I'm having problems booting live CD.
This is my computer:
Acer Aspire 7720G-813G32Bn,  BIOS 1.45 with virtualization hack
Intel Core 2 Duo T8100
2+2 GiB of RAM
GeForce 9500m GS
AU Optronics B170UW01 V0 display
Intel 4965AGN
Broadcom BCM5787M Gigabit Ethernet
Optiarc BD-ROM BC-5500A BD-ROM drive
WDC WD3200BEVT-22ZCT0 hard disk
SB X-Fi for notebooks
internal Broadcom bluetooth


Here is what happens:
I get to grub, select some option (same problem happens for all avaliable 
options), I get white dots then SunOS 5.1 header,  some text scrolls to fast 
for me to understand it (among the text there appears to be a matrix of 
hexadecimal numbers???).
Then I get the syncing file systems... done message. Then computer reboots.

The problem is same as the one described here:

Computer similar to mine are described 
here:[url]http://www.sun.com/bigadmin/hcl/data/systems/details/11511.html[/url] 
and 
here[url]http://www.sun.com/bigadmin/hcl/data/systems/details/16734.html[/url]


My laptop worked with some older version of opensolaris and solaris, but I 
can't remember which.

I was able to use the same disc to install opensolaris in a virtual machine 
without problems, so it probably isn't bad media.
