Title:
  friendly-recovery depends on /usr/bin/whiptail, and will fail if /usr
  on a different filesystem

Status in “friendly-recovery” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  I was trying to zero in a problem on Precise, Linux 3.2, and --
  perhaps -- encrypted LVM. So I booted, under the 3.2 kernel, into
  recovery -- and was greeted by a message stating

  "Couldn't find whiptail, starting root shell instead of recovery
  menu."

  Indeed, at this point in time my /usr has not, yet, been mounted.

  End result: friendly-recovery is not available as /usr is a different
  filesystem.
