This affects two totally different sets of hardware using the Ubuntu GNOME 20160323.1 amd64 image:
(1) AMD Sempron LE-1250 @ 2.2 GHz w/nVidia C61 [GeForce 7025 / nForce 630a] (2) Intel Pentium Dual-Core E5300 @ 2.60GHz w/Intel GMA4500 Graphics And it's worse because after waiting 2 to 3 minutes for that tty1 prompt to disappear you're asked for a password and just leaving it blank doesn't work. The only way I've found to get these images to work is to boot from the advanced boot menu. Booting the image in EFI mode it works fine. I wish we'd just stop hiding the advanced boot menu ;^) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1548864 Title: Ubuntu GNOME Xenial live image boots to tty1 and demands password To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/casper/+bug/1548864/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
