You can try to find out more details on how far the
kernel gets before it hangs by enabling  verbose
kernel messages.

Boot the LiveCD kernel with option "-v";  edit the
LiveCD grub boot entry (type 'e' twice) and append
option " -v" at the end of the kernel$ line. Boot the
modified entry (RETURN + 'b').



To get even more details on the boot process,
boot under kernel debugger control and enable
kernel module loading messages:

Append options " -kdv" at the end of the kernel$
line, boot.  At the kmdb prompt:
