Any thoughts? I just tested the 1.0_rc6-r9 CD and it booted perfectly for me. It seems strange that the system should just lock while the kernel is booting. Is it possible that your ISO image somehow got corrupted, or that your CD burn did not run properly? I'll post md5sums to the ix86-linux-gnu directory on ibiblio.org right now which allow you to easily see if your download is corrupt.
