When booting the operating system will not recognize the presence of the
LiveCD, and you will end up with a console of initram.

I followed one tip found on Internet.

* Create an USB with the image of Ubuntu 11.10 x86_64 following the 
instructions on http://www.ubuntu.com/download/ubuntu/download  
* Then burn a CD with the same image.
* Plug the USB and insert the CD.
* With rEFIt boot from the CD.
* When booting, the CD will be "lost" but it will continue with the USB image.

Now, I have Ubuntu 11.10 on my macbook pro 8,1.
