Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: usplash

On Lucid's new boot screen, if it begins running a fsck, I have two
controls: Esc (switch to console) and C (cancel fsck). The instructions
for pressing C to cancel are displayed on-screen.

If I switch to console by pressing Esc, I can switch back to the
graphical boot screen by hitting Esc again.

However, once switched back, the instructions for pressing C to cancel
are no longer displayed. Nor does C have any effect (from either the
console or the graphical boot screen). Thus there is no way to cancel
the fsck operation.

Running Ubuntu 10.04 LTS, with proprietary nVidia driver installed.
uname -a:
Linux avalon 2.6.32-21-generic #32-Ubuntu SMP Fri Apr 16 08:10:02 UTC 2010 i686 
GNU/Linux
I couldn't upload /boot/grub/menu.lst or /etc/usplash.conf, as neither file 
exists (have they moved in Lucid?)
