Confirmed after a user in #ubuntu reported this after using the mini.iso
to install a basic non-GUI system. I reproduced it.

grub2's default is to add 'quiet splash' to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT.

When 'splash' is there /etc/grub.d/10_linux detects it and adds
"vt.handoff=" to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT before grub.cfg is
generated.

** Changed in: grub2 (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Triaged

** Changed in: grub2 (Ubuntu)
   Importance: Undecided => Medium

** Summary changed:

- $vt_handoff causes black screen even when nomodeset is used
+ $vt_handoff causes boot to tty7 with no getty login on non-GUI installs
