LiveCD Problems

I've tried booting using the 'default', booting with 'ACPI' disabled, 
and booting in 'safe mode'. Once the login prompt comes up a few seconds 
later the system becomes unresponsive (i.e. pressing any keys including 
numlock / capslock produces no response whatsoever).

The only option I'm able to use is to boot into single user mode.

Additionally, I noticed a get a livelock message quite frequently on 
'intr 5' limiting it to 20000hz because it's usually at 96xxxhz.

Additionally, I have two CD drives and noticed that I can only boot from 
the 1st once successfully. Trying to boot from the second one causes a 
panic trying to mount the root file system.

Any way I can help you figure out why the first problem is occurring?
