Public bug reported:
Step to reproduce:
1. Set invalid locale to /etc/default/locale by:
sudo update-locale LC_TIME=" cs_CZ.UTF-8"
(notice the blank between " and cs)
2. Reboot
What happens:
The boot hangs with messages (after pressing escape) about invalid locale
What should happen:
I guess some default locale should be used instead, not booting is not cool.
How to recover:
Boot in recovery mode, mount partition by selecting fsck, then drop to root
console and edit /etc/default/locale with vim (delete the blank in C_TIME="
cs_CZ.UTF-8")
I am not sure if this is againsta the kernel or some other part of the
boot process.
