Yeah there still isn't a crack up as yet. Use your real CD to make a mini-image and it should work. Some people have encountered problems afterwards though.
There was another forum about it:

I've tried all those guys have talked about but mine still gets to about three quarters through the initial loading screen then cuts out.. I've tried making multiple images thinking it could be a problem there but the same thing still happens.
