[Bug 546393] Re: MacBook Pro 5, 1 / 5, 2 / 5, 3 / 5, 5 fails to boot into 10.04 desktop

[Christopher "The human bug seeker" V.]

I can confirm that adding "nouveau.noaccel=1 blacklist=vga16fb" (without the ") after the quite splash in the Live CD works.
It will boot and installation works.
After that you have to install the nvidia driver and then you have to reboot.
 NOTE, IMPORTANT: the second time you report after you installed the nvidia driver, the boot will fail, you need to add this time "nouveau.noaccel=0"  (NOT 1) and after that you dont have to add anything else and it will always work.
If you have any questions about this or if you would like to have this in a movie, feel free to ask me.
