Public bug reported: Sometimes I've problems with an external harddrive. On startup this causes ubuntu to stop booting and to display the "maintenance shell". On 8.04 i could resume booting by pressing Ctrl+D. This is no longer working. In fact my system does not react to any normal inputs. Only some unusual keycombinations like Ctrl+F trigger some kind of reaction (displaying something like "[^F"), most other keys including [RETURN] are just ignored. The only way I see to get out of this is by rebooting.
