I tried to test it from the Ubuntu 8.04 Beta CD but unfortunately my CD-ROM reader gone dead (and the computer does not boot from USB, I can only boot from floppy or internal HD).
Is there a way to boot the Live CD from hard disk (e.g. copying kernel+initrd to the hard disk, booting them from GRUB and using and external CD-Rom reader)?

However please note that if the patch you refer to is the same one discussed here:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14048#c7
and here (the period of time is just before 19th feb):
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14332
then probably it is not fixed, as Fedora 9 Beta still has the same bug (as Fedora has a graphical installer in its "not Live CD" version I know how to boot it from HD).

Regards,
Diego
