Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: ubiquity
While installing Herd 5 (Kubuntu X86_64), after partitioning, at about the 70%
mark while installing files, my screen went from the X desktop, to a text
console (probably pty0, it had the kernel messages on it, with 'Kernel active'
at the bottom)
I waited a minute, and when it didn't restore itself, I hit alt-f7 to get
back to X. WHat I got was a black screen with a dialog box saying that the
screen was locked, and I am prompted to enter the password for the 'ubuntu'
user.
Hitting enter with the password field blank, or any simple password I guessed
(password, user, ubuntu, root, toor) simply said 'unlock failed'.
Looks like its time to reboot and restart the install... Hope it goes
different.
** Affects: ubiquity (Ubuntu)
