I have just come across this bug with Hardy and would very much like to see it fixed, so please let me know if there is additional information I can provide to help this process. Please see http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=896077
I would give this bug high priority by the way, because it causes both the actual installation and the cd check to crash out at the very beginning, with no information provided about why or what to do to overcome it (such as try with acpi=off). This also gives the impression that the CD might be to blame when that is not the case. How come this keeps needing to be fixed in subsequent releases of the kernel by the way. Can't the fix be left in the code, or is each fix different? Having read Leann's last comment, please let me know if I have reported this bug in the wrong place.
