Please read and follow the 'blank screen problems' thread below.

You will be changing the 'nomodeset' boot parameter.

You might need to to enter other boot parameters There are 6 of them. You may have to do them one-by-one until you get video.

Actually there are lots and lots of boot parameters, but the 6 mentioned above will most likely solve the problem.

You may need to check the md5sum of your downloaded .iso.

And check the cd.

If you can make a successful boot with the live CD, you don't have to test it further. The CD works.

Which boot options did you try?
Did you manage to get one boot working (and only the reboot failing)?
