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
