machine (atlhon), on this, the massage " (process 239): GLIb-WARNING **:

Bug description:
  Text screen displays the following warning, and is misleading, since
  it has nothing to do with boot or Xorg problems:

      (process 239): GLIb-WARNING **: getpwid_r(): failed due to unknown
  user id (0)

  Please open a new bug for any boot hangs, etc. This message is not
  related to those problems, and need to be tracked separately.

  (The warning appears for people with Plymouth in their initramfs, for
  things like encrypted drives, etc. It is triggered by Pango
  initialization that tries to read /etc/passwd, which is missing in the
  initramfs.)
