Title:
  message to remove external drive and press ENTER is hidden

Status in “plymouth” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  At shutdown and reboot after booting from a dd-cloned USB drive (dd if
  =iso-file of=/dev/sdusb), and the graphical splash screen with dots is
  running, the text prompting to remove the external drive and press
  ENTER is hidden (not shown). And this is the common situation. But for
  example in a VirtualBox machine, there is a text splash screen, and
  the text is shown.

  It should be easy to restore the behaviour to what was there is
  earlier versions, and show the message also with the graphical splash
  screen.

  Also, this is not a problem when using usb-creator-gtk from an old
  version of Ubuntu.

  You may ask why I clone with dd. One reason is that usb-creator-gtk is
  broken (bug 1054712), another that dd is simple and fast, and I use a
  script, that makes it safe.
