I am affected by the very same bug in 16.10. I have hybrid virtual/dulaboot system - a physical encrypted partition + dedicated ESP that is bootable on bare metal from UEFI and able to load either Ubuntu or Windows; or bootable via VirtualBox using dedicated ESP and UEFI boot.
- In case of bare metal everything boots properly and password can be entered - In case of booting in virtualbox boot stucks in LUKS password phase. Any attempt to type is immediately echoed in text-mode over Plymouth graphical screen (top left corner) and submit with enter doesn't work. If I edit kernel GRUB's Ubuntu entry and remove these specific lines: load_video gfxmode ... and remove following from kernel commandline: splash $vt.handoff it boots in text mode, I am able to enter keyphrase and it boots just fine. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1386005 Title: Password not accepted graphical boot for encrypted root system To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/linuxmint/+bug/1386005/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
