The reason for this happening is that apparently this ubuntu-server image is booting with vt.handoff=7 while in systemd's logind we're only using the default number of configured tty's (i.e. 6). So plymouth is running, doing it's thing and then switches to tty7 which is not enabled. This can be confirmed by either increasing logind's number of tty's or by enforcing vt.handoff=1.
Need to look into how we had this configured in earlier versions. I'd opt for restoring vt.handoff=1 in this case. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1675453 Title: During d-i install of ubuntu-server from mini.iso I get no login prompt To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/plymouth/+bug/1675453/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
