[Bug 450879] [NEW] can't reboot in recovery mode

[Rocko]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: grub2

I can't reboot any more into recovery mode. When I try, I get the
initial two lines of text indicating that the system is booting into a
kernel, and after a pause the disk starts reading, but no further text
is ever displayed.

I can't reboot into either karmic or jaunty's recovery mode, so this is
a pretty critical problem.

I'm using karmic's grub2 bootloader and I've set grub2 to show a
1024x768 resolution screen.

Presumably this might be related to the framebuffer problems in karmic
(see bugs  #447765 and #428519).
