As mentioned, with the alternate cd it is possible to get through the whole installation process without any problem, but afterwards the boot process of the installed system stopps with the message "Starting ACPI services...". The live-cd doesn't boot properly, so an installation can't be accomplished.
As Shaw Terwilliger emphasizes, a behavior like this, even if hopefully not many users will be affected (if eljefe6 is right, then there will be a lot out there), could be detrimental for Ubuntu's reputation and I consider therefore to find a solution with which also unexperienced users will be able to run Feisty.
