Thanks for your comment. I do think it's important to state that this isn't a wish for a "new" feature, but a critical bug report on an old one.
Adding support for pressing Esc during boot to show the messages would be novel for Ubuntu (though absolutely standard everywhere else). BUT, the failure to parse the kernel command-line, and react to either "splash=none" or "single" is a definite bug. This used to work fine. I think there is a bug in either the kernel or the liveCD bootloader. -- Be able to show consoles messages https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/195666 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
