On external power, I've just installed the 2008-04-10 Hardy i386 LiveCD.

The LiveCD hangs during boot with the messages:

ACPI: EC: acpi_ec_wait timeout, status=32, expect_event=1
ACPI: EC: read timeout, command=128

However, the *installed* system boots fine:

[   13.169576] ACPI: EC: Look up EC in DSDT
[   13.178074] ACPI: Interpreter enabled
[   13.178137] ACPI: (supports S0 S3 S4 S5)
[   13.178392] ACPI: Using IOAPIC for interrupt routing
[   13.180182] ACPI: EC: non-query interrupt received, switching to interrupt 
mode
[   13.205184] ACPI: EC: GPE = 0x17, I/O: command/status = 0x66, data = 0x62
[   13.205249] ACPI: EC: driver started in interrupt mode

~$ uname -a
Linux hardy-i386 2.6.24-15-generic #1 SMP Tue Apr 8 00:33:51 UTC 2008 i686 
GNU/Linux

Can I get some clarifications on the various reports?

1. Is anyone having problems with the *installed* i386?
2. What dates are the daily LiveCDs that *do* hang?
3. Have you tried the amd64 (64-bit) LiveCD?

This looks to me rather like something missing from the initrd of the
CD.

Currently the workaround appears to be to *disconnect* external power
whilst the i386 LiveCD is booting and reconnect it once the loading
splash screen appears.
