Update: This problem should probably not affect the RC, it may be a kernel regression that only affects certain hardware.

I have a brand new Acer AS1410 netbook, the Live USB booted up fine (though *very* slow), partitioning the system for Dual Boot and installing went fine, but Ubuntu does not boot. It takes about half a minute for the white Ubuntu logo on black b/g, then about a minute later, the Caps Lock LED starts blinking and nothing else happens.

Booting in Recovery Mode displays a whole bunch of messages, you can look at Launchpad question 86531
