Public bug reported:
Utopic server VM installations do not fully restart (roughly 50% of the
time) after the installation. The screen either is stuck at the grub
menu selection screen indefinitely or stuck at the screen as shown in
the attachment.
Although, manually hitting enter a couple of times make the vm to fully
boot, the automated smoke tests hang forever due to this issue.
The following line can be seen in dmesg when this happens
init: plymouth-upstart-bridge main process (167) terminated with status 1
Not sure when exactly this issue started occurring due to some other
issues impacting the smoke tests recently, but the tests started failing
roughly around when 3.15.0-2 was introduced (20140524). The host where
the VM's are created is trusty, and this can be seen with amd64 and i386
not always but roughly 5/10 reboot attempts.
Seen a similar bug report,
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/plymouth/+bug/1309617 for
trusty and not sure if at all it's related.
To Reproduce:
1. Do a server install using utopic iso (20140604) - doing an lvm partition with dns installation *appear to make the bug more easily reproducible
2. Once the installation is complete carry out virsh destroy /virsh start repetitively and this issue should arise within about 5 attmpts
