This works for me on Ubuntu 12.04.  Is this still an issue for you?

Title:
  Maverick Meerkat alpha 3 livecd: resuming after dropping into single
  doesn't work

Status in “upstart” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: upstart

  If you boot the livecd, press space to allow selecting options, pick
  english, press f6 and esc to get the kernel boot line, remove the
  quiet and splash options and add single, then hit return to boot, you
  get the normal startup up to the choice menu which allows (among other
  things) dropping into a root prompt (with or without networking).
  Even if you don't choose one of those, but instead pick "resume normal
  boot", you end up in a command prompt, not in the gui.

  In older releases, after resuming normal boot you ended up in the
  normal gnome desktop.

  I need this at work where I have to ensure that the name my laptop
  uses for its DHCP request matches the name the DHCP server has stored,
  i.e. it can be called ubuntu as is the default.

  I'm guessing that the package for this is upstart; I couldn't find
  anything on the web page for picking packages about boot-time startup
  problems.
