There is, in my opinion, a real bug here in plymouth. However, it can be easily worked around by adding 'xencons=hvc0 console=hvc0' as I've done now in [1] (a slight fix at rev 211 also). I think this can be further fixed in legacy-grub-ec2 in lucid by adding the appropriate xencons to the default config file, making the fix in vmbuilder-uec- ec2-fixes unnessesary.
