[Bug 942846] Re: encrypted install fails to boot as long as vt.handoff=7 is used

Mon Mar 5 00:30:47 UTC 2012

Thank you for taking the time to file a bug report on this issue.

However, given the number of bugs that the Kernel Team receives during
any development cycle it is impossible for us to review them all.
Therefore, we occasionally resort to using automated bots to request
further testing. This is such a request.

We have noted that there is a newer version of the development kernel
than the one you last tested when this issue was found. Please test
again with the newer kernel and indicate in the bug if this issue still
exists or not.

You can update to the latest development kernel by simply running the
following commands in a terminal window:

    sudo apt-get update
    sudo apt-get upgrade

If the bug still exists, change the bug status from Incomplete to
Confirmed. If the bug no longer exists, change the bug status from
Incomplete to Fix Released.

If you want this bot to quit automatically requesting kernel tests, add
a tag named: bot-stop-nagging.

 Thank you for your help, we really do appreciate it.

** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu)
       Status: Confirmed => Incomplete

** Tags added: kernel-request-3.2.0-18.28

Title:
  encrypted install fails to boot as long as vt.handoff=7 is used

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete
Status in “plymouth” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  After installing the system from the alternate cd with full disk
  encryption, the system refuses to boot unless you edit the grub
  parameters and remove vt.handoff=7 from the kernel command line.

  Occasionally this error is displayed:
  error: no video mode activated.

  but usually all you have is a blinking cursor. Switching to a tty and
  then back to tty7 will get you the pylmouth password prompt so you can
  input the password and continue to boot.
