the live cd does take some time depending on your machine. It basically copies what it needs on to your ram.. which can take time. For my desktop/laptop it takes a couple of mins but for my old machine, it takes like 5-10 mins or so to get to the desktop.
Anyway, just check the disc for errors if in doubt. It is one of the options on the boot list for the disc
