Ubuntu 7.10 Live CD on Sony Vaio VGN-NR120E laptops

I failed to boot when trying ro run Ubuntu 7.10 live CD on my laptop Sony Vaio VGN-NR120E. I did googling and found a hint and it worked.
The hint is below:
1. Insert the Ubuntu 7.10 live CD
2. Press F6 (Option) when you are asked to choose some options
3. Type "noapic nolapic" (without quotes) before --
4. Enter and you are in Ubuntu live CD.

On my case: screen was correctly display, Fn keys for volume work normal, Fn keys for brightness not working.
Hope this will help.
