(Get the code!)
Unfortunately, lacking the log files is going to hamper debugging this issue, but perhaps there's some alternate techniques that could help...
First, when using th e alpha2 cd, try running sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop quickly before X freezes. If you're lucky, this may shut off X before it locks up.
Second, have you tried using a 64-bit version? Same issue, or does it work properly?
Third, have you tried installing using the alternate CD? It may skip the step that causes the X failure.
Fwiw, this bug sounds a lot like bug 127008, however afaik xresprobe is no longer being used during LiveCD boot. You could check via 'which xresprobe' - in theory it should no longer be present on the system.
