Title:
  black boot

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  after the latest updates I get a black screen during bootup... it seems related to the vt.handoff=7 feature of grub.
  Infact removing this I can see at least the virtualterminal during bootup.
  Maybe it is not correctly patched the latest release of grub (2.00-5ubuntu1)
