I do think the "works half the time" behavior of grub safe boot is
coming into play. It's not exactly half the time but whenever I get a
hang, I definitely get the grub screen afterward. Occasionally I get
the grub screen more than once in a row though.
I downgraded libplymouth2 plymouth plymouth-theme-ubuntu-logo plymouth-
theme-ubuntu-text and plymouth-label (the only installed *plymouth*
packages).
It still hangs about half the time.
Probably not relevant, but reported here for completeness. I got these
warnings at the end of the downgrade.
cryptsetup: WARNING: failed to detect canonical device of /dev/sda3
cryptsetup: WARNING: could not determine root device from /etc/fstab
(FWIW, I re-updated to keep the number of variables low).
** Changed in: plymouth (Ubuntu)
Status: Incomplete => New
