<https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LucidLynx/ReleaseNotes#Changes%20in%20boot-
time%20output%20on%20Ubuntu%20Server>:
With the introduction of plymouth, boot-time messages from startup
scripts are no longer displayed above the login prompt on tty1. Instead,
they are all output to tty7 and on Ubuntu Server, can be viewed after
boot by pressing Alt+F7. On all systems the boot output can also be
found in /var/log/boot.log.
On new installs of Ubuntu 10.04 LTS Server, no boot splash screen is
shown by default. While this provides server administrators with more
immediate feedback about their system while booting, it also prevents
prompts from reaching the user in the event of filesystem mounting
failures. Users can add the splash option to /etc/default/grub if they
prefer to always see the splash screen.Hotkeys for interacting with
mountall will still work without the splash screen, but are not
discoverable: C to cancel a running fsck; M to request a maintenance
shell; S to skip an unavailable mount; and F to try to fix errors found
by a fsck. (563916)
