Getting the same behaviour. Just did a pristine install of Ubuntu 9.10 and then immediately did a dist-upgrade to Ubuntu Lucid Alpha. System hangs on first boot into the newly installation; symptoms as described by the original report.
Using the failsafe boot entry, I was able to get a login and from there startx got me to gnome desktop. This Computer is equipped with a nvidia card and dual head display; the upgrade had picked the nouveau driver automatically -- [lucid] Plymouth hangs at boot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/518034 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
