Public bug reported:
I'm not sure if this is a plymouth bug or xserver-xorg-video-cirrus, but
if I install 13.04 on a kvm VM (via libvirt) with the cirrus video
driver using the livecd (server install is ok) and choose to encrypt the
entire disk, on reboot I get a flash of purple then it goes to a black
screen. I thought it might be just that the prompt was not displayed,
but typing the password simply echoes the password to the screen and
does not open LUKS.
Any of the following works around the issue:
* use the vmvga driver instead of cirrus
* adding nomodeset to the kernel command line
* removing splash from the kernel command line
If I remove 'quiet', then the boot stops (see attached screenshot).
