In a fresh install, it hangs for five minutes, while it waits for the network interfaces to go up. After login prompt, if you try to restart networking, it complains about policykit-1 not found.

[Bug 1675453] Re: During d-i install of ubuntu-server from mini.iso I get no login prompt
Look like mini.iso/netboot will use plymouth in text mode where the server.iso does not. So I think that plymouth is not being taken down and therefore utilising tty1 which is why we see no login adding plymouth to the bug. ** Package changed: debian-installer (Ubuntu) => plymouth (Ubuntu) -- 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

[Bug 1675453] Re: During d-i install of ubuntu-server from mini.iso I get no login prompt
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

[Bug 1675453] Re: During d-i install of ubuntu-server from mini.iso I get no login prompt
So plymouth is by default using tty1 already, but there seem to be some other problems here. Looks like with the 'quiet splash' option, when plymouth is running there still seems to be some output printed out to the screen on top of the splash-screen (from the looks of it it's systemd output + a few single kernel messages on the kvm). This looks terrible. The old FRAMEBUFFER=y initramfs trick works partially, but the few single kernel messages are still being printed. By 'quiet' I would expect completely silent boot. When running with just 'quiet' without plymouth, I actually only see the kernel messages (which is still something I wouldn't expect seeing). I suppose this would have to be fixed first. -- 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/grub2/+bug/1675453/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1675453] Re: During d-i install of ubuntu-server from mini.iso I get no login prompt
I'm learning all those bits slowly piece by piece here... @Steve: it actually seems that "vt.handoff=1" is not equal to no- vt.handoff. I would have to look into the vt.handoff kernel patches, but without vt.handoff tty1 is indeed used by default for handoff and everything, but the difference is that vt.handoff also turns the terminal to a 'transparent' type until first switch in and out from that terminal. What this means practically is that when "quiet splash vt.handoff=1" is given, there is no output printed onto the screen and all plymouth transitions are fluid (and the aubergine BG is present from the start). Quoting Colin from askubuntu: "vt.handoff=7 then causes the kernel to maintain the current contents of video memory on virtual terminal 7, which is a new "transparent" VT type. The first time that the kernel is told to switch away from VT 7, either from Plymouth or manually (Alt-F1, etc.), these contents are lost and VT 7 reverts to text mode." -- 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/grub2/+bug/1675453/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1675453] Re: During d-i install of ubuntu-server from mini.iso I get no login prompt
Ok, so it seems a few of my previous tests were a bit flawed. It looks like vt.handoff=1 does the trick completely for this particular bug. So once we switch grub2 to vt.handoff=1 this bug here will be fixed. Another thing that needs to be still considered is somehow tweaking netboot installs to have 'splash quiet' removed - but that's a separate story. -- 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/grub2/+bug/1675453/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1675453] Re: During d-i install of ubuntu-server from mini.iso I get no login prompt
I agree that's something worth considering, but I'd say it's a separate story. The vt.handoff patches are not only needed for the d-i netboot install of server case, but in overall for the splash boot experience being smooth. Without vt.handoff all desktops will regress in how the splash screen looks like, with a black screen flashing before plymouth starts, text messages (even with quiet) appearing on screen. So I'd opt for filling in a separate bug for the vt.handoff deprecation and move any discussion there. Or maybe there is a bug already where this has been discussed? Since I heard that vt.handoff removal already had some discussion, so I'd certainly like to see what was planned. -- 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/grub2/+bug/1675453/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
