Exact same issue with same MacBookPro Type. Haveing a 500GB SATA HD + 8GB RAM using Lucid Beta 1 64Bit. Another Linux e.g http://www.sysresccd.org/ CD boots just fine on this macine. OSX works fine, just as Windows 7 64 Bit. Using rEFIt 0.14 (http://refit.sourceforge.net/) but even the LiveCD option does not boot.
Disabled videodrive nomodeset, hangs at Wireless driver PHY.
Will investigate other options, boot parameters or what else I think might lead to success in the meantime...
Note that I've installed Linux, OSX , Windows, FreeBSD etc on MANY systems, so the issue is likely not my fault.
