I believe this is due to usplash requiring a FIFO output reader when getting the "INPUTCHAR" command. There is a race condition in the fsck script that the reader starts after the write is sent. usplash will exit when it wins the race.
e.g.: $ sudo -s # usplash -c -v & # usplash_write "INPUTCHAR" [1]+ Exit 1 usplash -c -v -- [hardy] esc key during fsck check causes usplash to break into text mode https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/194017 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
