Public bug reported:
Current Lubuntu stonking live booted on hp dc7700 for purposes of
wanting a clean install to do some testing of Wayland session(s) with
new install...
On booting box; I get the grub TRY/INSTALL type text screen; select TRY
and machine appears to boot normally.
A blue background (not solid color) appears on both displays with mouse
pointer on both (ie. screens are obviously MIRRORed; not new as some
kernels boot this card in mirror mode where others don't with a default
Lubuntu ISO)...
** expected result
I expect to be asked what to do, I wanted to run an install
** actual result
System just sat there, mouse pointer would NOT move, with system
appearing to be locked up..
This was booted a number of times and same result each time; different
USB ports tried too.
I could switch to text terminal and did my exploratory checks, eg. media
check completed correctly (ie. found in journalctl is following)
Aug 09 05:39:09 lubuntu casper-md5check[2114]: Check finished: no errors
found.
** Resolved via kill lubuntu-installer-prompt
I opened (at text terminal) htop and killed lubuntu-installer-prompt and
then a live session correctly starts... Possibly I'm not seeing that
dialog? (thus the LONG HANG..)
(I didn't wait as long this attempt as prior attempts; but its not first
check)
I've not experienced this before (stonking) and lack time to do more
testing, but reporting a (potential) problem here with this report
