MacBook Pro 5,2 (that's the current model from mid-2009) is unable to boot into the Ubuntu 10.04 beta1 Live-CD.
1. When nothing is set in the modes menu and no button is pressed then I can't even see the new Ubuntu Plymouth theme. The only thing I see is a blinking cursor and it doesn't boot at all.

2. If I press F6 in the options menu and choose "nomodeset" then I see the Ubuntu Plymouth theme but the laptop fails to boot and stops at a specific point. I repeat this procedure and the point where it stops is always the same.
I attached a screenshot and a movie demonstrating the problem.
