2012-03-28 14:32:18 Tom description When installing the lubuntu image as part of the iso testing (lubuntu/daily/20120327/precise-alternate-amd64.iso) using the alternate installer from the daily builds for March 27, 2012, I attemted to make a full-disk encrypted setup using LVM. I used the instructions from the isotesting testcase: http://testcases.qa.ubuntu.com/Install/AlternateEncryptedLvm The install went perfectly. However, when I rebooted, the system hung on a blank screen. I left it for over half an hour, and no response. At this point, I simply typed in the password for the LVM encryption, and the system then continuted to boot normally. After getting into the system, I tested it (everything was working fine) then rebooted. I experienced the same symptoms (just a blank screen) after each boot. I believe that there is supposed to be a screen prompting the user for the password for the LVM encryption instead of just a blank screen.

Alternatively, hit one of the up/down arrow keys to get to the GUI and enter your password (you will need to hit backspace twice to remove the two characters that were put in by the one arrow key press) 2) Edit your /boot/grub/grub.cfg file. In the menu entry for the kernel you wish to boot, add the text "plymouth:force-drm" (without the quotes) to the end of the line that starts with "linux /boot/vmzlinux-3.2.....". If you do this workaround, you will need to re-apply this fix anytime the kernel package is updated or grub is otherwise modified as the file is completely re-written each time. 3) Use the un-modified kernel. Read: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds to manually download a mainline kernel and install on your system. ---original bug follows--- When installing the lubuntu image as part of the iso testing (lubuntu/daily/20120327/precise-alternate-amd64.iso) using the alternate installer from the daily builds for March 27, 2012, I attemted to make a full-disk encrypted setup using LVM.
