[Bug 546393] Re: MacBook Pro 5, 1 / 5, 2 / 5, 3 / 5, 5 fails to boot into 10.04 desktop

[Brad Crittenden]

Attempting to install 10.10 Desktop Beta 1 to a MBP5,1 led to the
symptoms shown in this bug for lucid:  attempting to install or boot to
the live CD yielded a black screen with blinking cursor.

Using the work-around (nouveau.noaccel=1 blacklist=vga16fb) allowed the
live CD to boot.  I then switched to the nVidia driver and the system
boots fine.
