Is it possible that this (very good) decision makes it impossible to see actual errors and suggestions? For example, if you can't mount a filesystem, nothing on the screen will say so, and you don't see the suggestions. (like pressing S or M) while these keys do work. -- Ubuntu servers should

Testing with 20100406 beta2 candidate, splash is still present in the boot options. That makes the splash screen show, and alt-F7 switch to an empty screen. Maybe unrelated, but at first boot after install, the splash screen was echoing lots of could not write bytes: broken pipe errors (this
