Public bug reported: I downloaded this Raring Ringtail ISO: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/20121129/raring-desktop-amd64.iso. I created a live non persistent USB key with Unetbootin. When booting my PC from this live USB key into a live session with the above image and also with Precise 12.10.1 I get a kernel oops, see attached image-1. If I boot my PC from the same live USB key, but instead of selecting "try Ubuntu" I select "Install Ubuntu" I get a messed up background with red spots and signs, see image-2. Even with the display all messed up I can carry out the installation, but when I boot my PC I get a red spotted and messed up backgroud, as soon as I login to my session I get a kernel oops again - see image-3. If I install the proprietary ATI drivers (apt-get install fglrx), and reboot at least I can logon to my session but I get various crashes, so I think that the problem is related the video drivers (I have an ATI radeon HD 6670 video card). I am attaching a lshw.txt file with my PC's hardware and the output of dmesg, lsusb and lspci.
