Public bug reported:

I'm testing Ubuntu GNOME Utopic 20140826 i386 and just as the title
says, if I choose Try without installing from the advanced boot menu I
end up at a TTY prompt. Typing startx does take me to a partially
functional DE, but not functional enough to copy the attached photo or
file the bug report so none of the logs will be of any particular use
other than verifying the live media being used.

The live session starts and runs normally if started from the normal Try
or Install screen so this is not a big deal for a Beta 1. Probably worth
mentioning in the release notes though.
