99% certain this is a plymouth issue, however: @David Svensson: Alpha2 works, but an aptitude safe-upgrade renders the machine incapable of even getting into the grub menu.
I think that's a seperate issue as I have that issue while trying to boot alpha 3, I get stuck at verifying dmi data, and nothing comes after that, however 9.10 boots up no problem. ** Package changed: ubuntu => plymouth (Ubuntu) -- Blank screen when booting Lucid 10.04 alpha 2 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/511130 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
