Well, I tried to fix this, but the fix was not acceptable.
To those affected by this, you can try something like the following, to
actually edit the ISO inline using sed, and turn the fb off. Note that
the replacement will need to be character-for-character:
sed -i "s/initrd.gz quiet --/initrd.gz fb=0 --/" lucid-server-amd64.iso
I created a script, in my $HOME/bin/fixiso:
#!/bin/sh
sed -i "s/initrd.gz quiet --/initrd.gz fb=0 --/" $@
