I was so annoyed that my "presseded" installations of Ubuntu 20.04 Legacy ISO Server with Packer were ending up with a black screen that only "ALT + Arrow Right" was bringing the `tty1` back to life...
Then, I realized that the "Packer builds were adding" the "quiet splash" to the /etc/default/grub file, no matter what I did to pressed regular options, and this problem brought me to this... 11 years old bug report!!! Whaaaat?! So, the workaround proposed on comment #1 worked like a charm, and finally, my Packer builds produces awesome server images with a nice verbose boot that goes straight to tty1! It looks like that won't be fixed since Canonical is moving to the new subiquity, Cloud-Init based `autoinstall`. Kinda sad. I don't like the new "Live Server" install media, legacy is way, way better.
