Ubuntu 6.10 hangs on first boot

Could you please retest with Ubuntu Feisty Fawn?

It seems you have configured this with the binary nvidia driver. Can
you do sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg from the command line and
choose 'nv' driver instead. If the symptom still persists on 6.10
please attach Xorg.0.log from /var/log

Closing as out of date, since there has not been a response for 3 months. If you get a chance, please re-test with Feisty and open a new bug if the problem still exists.
