Public bug reported:
This happened on Ubuntu Fiesty 7.04 beta livecd, burned on 31/3/07
The system was an Acer Aspire 3618AWLCi notebook with integrated Intel
graphics, the default keyboard, etc.
This may only be a livecd issue...
To reproduce:
Boot 7.04 beta
Press Crtl-Meta-Fx, where x!=7
You should receive a completely black background with a blinking
horizontal cursor in the upper-left hand corner of the screen. Any
typed text will not echo, and nothing shows if you enter a command (I
tried "ls"). You can still return to the graphical interface with Crtl-
Meta-F7.
The exception was in tty8, where the text-based remains of the boot
process remained on the screen, the last line of which was
* Running local boot scripts (/etc/rc.local) [ OK ]
** Affects: Ubuntu
Importance: Undecided
Status: Unconfirmed
