[Bug 598344] [NEW] Crashes while installing on MacBook7,1

[Nicholas Burns]

Public bug reported:

I have a MacBook7,1, the newest one that just came out, and when I tried
to try Ubuntu without installing, this message comes up:

BusyBox v1.13.3 (Ubuntu 1:1.13.3-1ubuntu9) built-in shell (ash)
Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands

(initramfs) Unable to find a medium containing a live file system.

I tried to install Ubuntu as well, with the same result. I've tried it several times now, to no avail. I've also heard that this bug occurs with the new MBP as well.
Here are my laptop's specs, if they help:
Model Name:	MacBook
  Model Identifier:	MacBook7,1
  Processor Name:	Intel Core 2 Duo
  Processor Speed:	2.4 GHz
  Number Of Processors:	1
  Total Number Of Cores:	2
  L2 Cache:	3 MB
  Memory:	2 GB
  Bus Speed:	1.07 GHz


Thanks, I'd like to get this bug fixed so I can get Ubuntu on my laptop.
