Boot Freezes on Splash Screen about live-android HOT 7 OPEN

At first, had the same problem with VMWare + Windows XP.
I could make it boot basically disabling most of optional stuff (CD drive, 
parallel
ports, etc) when creating the virtual machine.

Virtual machine created on easyvmx.com, pointing to the iso file

I created the machine, disabled everything possible, enabled 'CDROM #2:CDROM 
Image
(.iso)' and downloaded the file.

After decompressing it, I edited the *.vmx file, disabled first CD drive 
(couldn't
boot with that), changed the second drive to be the first, set 
'startConnected=TRUE'
and pointed it to my iso, as above:

# Settings for physical CDROM drive
#ide1:0.present = "TRUE"
#ide1:0.deviceType = "cdrom-raw"
#ide1:0.startConnected = "TRUE"
#ide1:0.fileName = "auto detect"
#ide1:0.autodetect = "TRUE"

# Settings for the optional virtual CDROM, ISO-image
ide1:0.present = "TRUE"
ide1:0.fileName = "../liveandroidv0.2.iso"
ide1:0.deviceType = "cdrom-image"
ide1:0.mode = "persistent"
ide1:0.startConnected = "TRUE"

I'm having this problem with v0.2 and VirtualBox 3.0.2 running on a Core 2 Duo 
E7300.

The same here. Screen freezes on splash.
Hardware: Lenovo ThinkPad T500, core 2 duo, video card: ATI Mobility Radeon HD 
3650

i am having the issue on virtualbox as well. pentium4 ht. dimension 5150

I have exactly the same issue, booting CD on a desktop computer.
YES, I verified the iso's checksum.
My system is motherboard: Asrock 939DualSATA; processor: AMD 2 GHz single-core
Athlon; video: ATI 3870.

In the FAQ, "androidgude" says: "If you won't get any further than the 
splashscreen,
try increasing the Base Memory (e.g. to 200MB) and Video Memory (e.g. to 64MB). 
For
most users, this works.".  I assuming he is talking about VM parameters.  There
appears to be no way to specify this during the boot from CD.

Downloading the ISO from Bittorent fixed the problem for me.

I use an intel p4 based pc with 768mb of ddr1 ram.
i downloaded liveandroidv0.2 which is a 174mb torrent file and burn it to a cd
but when i boot it from my pc via a cd, it freezes at splash screen.........
this even happens on my thinkpad r61

PLEASE FIX THIS IMMEDIATELY
