Ctrl+C works by initiating the resume action. This bug left me in an unbootable state because of a syntax error in xorg.conf. I was forced to use an external recovery live CD to recover.
The solution was to remove friendly-recovery. Now I have root prompt with read-write privileges. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1061239 Title: system hangs after selecting certain menu items inRecovery Menu To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/friendly-recovery/+bug/1061239/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
