I've got the same problem here on an Acer Aspire 1353XC Laptop with Beta1, but the Live CD (well, on a USB stick) installer worked OK aside from corrupted graphics during the bootsplash. So what is the difference between the Live CD boot and the normal install boot, that means the Live CD works

It was basically just trial and error. You might try under clocking your cpu just in case (might not actually help). Even in verbose mode (i.e, without quiet and splash for the kernel command line), the final message I see is the one from fsck. I have tried blindly firing away C+A+D after the
