This problem also occurs on an AMD64 asus A4book (ati mobility 9700) laptop installed into XP home via wubi. It showed its ugly head on initial install of 8:04.
Symptoms: Orange bar goes over rapidly(ish) to about 38% whereby it hangs for about 20 secs before dropping into text screen. Various OK's before hanging for about two minutes on Activating Swapfile. It then continues to boot as normal and works beautifully. I was hoping this would be cured in the 8:10 release but sadly not. The update itself was a disaster ending up requiring fresh install... But thats another story !!
