[Bug 1656605] Re: No server console display after Grub screen until fully booted and pressing Ctrl-Alt-F1/8

 

Correct, it doesn't sound like this is a kernel bug, so I added the
upgrade package.

Bug description:
  Today I did our first production 14.04 to 16.04 LTS server upgrade. I
  had done so a couple of times successfully on test server machines.
  Upon booting up on the 16.04 system/kernel, after the Grub screen the
  server console screen is completely blank.

  Someone suggested using Ctrl-Alt-F1/8, and indeed pressing those
  hotkeys does toggle through the tty screens.

  There is no boot process logged to the server console screen.

  I did have the last 14.04 kernel yet installed, so selected that one
  from the Grub menu. Booting that 14.04 kernel, then server console
  display behaves normally.

  So I suspected perhaps a bum install of the 16.04 kernel. I used the
  following commands while booted to the 14.04 kernel to reinstall the
  16.04 kernel:

  $ sudo dpkg -P linux-image-4.4.0-59-generic linux-image-extra-4.4.0-59-generic linux-image-generic
  $ sudo apt-get install linux-image-generic

  Same results booting the 16.04 kernel after those steps.

  Hardware spec is an Intel Atom D945GCLF2D boxed motherboard with Intel
  Atom 330 Dual-Core processor and 2GB RAM. RAID is 3Ware SATA RAID.
