I created a USB non persistent key with today's Quantal daily ISO (http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/20120922/quantal-desktop-amd64.iso) but on boot I first saw the white ubuntu logo on the purple backgraound but suddenly the screen got all messed up, see attached picture, I heard the sound you hear when Ubuntu starts. After getting the messed up screen I could not carry on installing as it was impossible to see anything.

I tried to download the iso twice and checked the md5sum. I had the problem twice, first time had only a black screen and had to type ctrl+alt+f1 to get some information with ubuntu-bug and the second time got some output on a black screen but had to press ctrl+alt+f1 to launch ubuntu-bug. I'm attaching the apport info of the second try. I tried to install on this hardware: http://wiki.ubuntu-it.org/CarlaSella/lshw.
