Normally the 'run forever' syndrome of the ubuntu live cd is caused by not having enough main memory (constantly accessing the cd). I have found that 128mb is not enough to boot from the live cd. I have not had a problem with 256mb - others have needed more. After ubuntu is installed - you could probably remove the extra memory. But hey - memory is cheap. http://wiki.linuxcnc.org/cgi-bin/emcinfo.pl?Hardware_Requirements
