Well...
Since you're getting to grub, maybe you could try this http://crunchbang.org/forums/viewtopic.php?id=26340
...should give you a text install with an ncurses interface
No joy 
Exactly the same behaviour, still.

Fairly recent machine so should boot from USB...try booting from flashdrive instead of CD?
Identical behaviour right along the line, I'm afraid

Bump: anybody have any ideas?

On Ubuntu at least, you need to add a PPA to install bitcoind through apt. I'm not sure what the suggested route would be on #!, but I imagine it's not in the standard repos.

This laptop seems to be a real, real problem child if anything Debian-based goes near it. Arch is the only Live CD that I've got anywhere with (though not Archbang, for whatever reason), but I love me some Debian and have now resolved to force #! onto it one way or another.
Anyway, here's a quick run down of the specs:
Processor Brand AMD
Processor Speed 1.9 GHz
Processor Count 4
RAM Size 8 GB
Computer Memory Type DDR3 SDRAM
Hard Drive Size 1 TB
Graphics Chipset Brand AMD
Graphics Card Description Integrated (AMD Radeon HD 7640G)
Graphics RAM Type DDR3 SDRAM
Graphics Card Ram Size 2048 MB
Trying to boot the Waldorf CD's live session with the default parameters gives me a grey screen with a blinking cursor. Standard response: remove quiet and try nomodeset! That, at least, convinces it to talk to me, but doesn't get far. With nothing that looks like an error, everything grinds to a halt on
[ 0.011495] ACPI: Core revision 20110623
With acpi=off added, we still don't get anything obviously erroneous in the output, and stop on:
[ 0.153468] NET: Registered protocol family 1
And that's where I am now. Can anyone suggest anything?
