If I recall correctly, the switch to text mode is announced by "fbcon: Taking over console":
[ 3.260050] fbcon: Taking over console [ 3.265958] Console: switching to colour frame buffer device 240x67 [ 3.284441] EXT4-fs (nvme0n1p2): orphan cleanup on readonly fs so you get an idea of what triggered it. But the console is not the system log, so you'll never find the offending messages you saw on screen in the journal. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2114116 Title: Questing boot splash is interrupted by fsck "clean" message To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/initramfs-tools/+bug/2114116/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
