I believe that after you boot from the live cd, you can remount the boot
partition with something like
mount -o rw,remount <device for boot partition>
such as
mount -o rw,remount /dev/sda1
if the boot /boot were on /dev/sda1
and you can just type
mount
to find out where /boot is currently mounted
Good Luck
PS -
The "memory for crash kernel ..." thing is, I think, normal
