Installer blank screen problem

[Steve Riley]

Ubuntu bug #556372 
(https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mountall/+bug/556372) is

changing it to "Won't fix" but I added myself anyway.

Comment #16 contains an alternate workaround. You can create a 
"plymouth-dummy" that replaces Plymouth and persists across updates.
