an effort to get around hanging at the purple screen on boot.

one PPA that nee

Great idea. I didn't know you could get the recording from boots that were
done previously.
I reproduced a failed boot, and then a successful boot. Please find
attached "failedboot.txt" and just for fun, I recorded the successful boot
as well. It is attached as "successfulboot.txt"
