[Bug 1566708] Re: Failed to boot when install ubuntu16.04 beta2 desktop64 with EFI boot in Vmware ESXi

 

I'm having the same issue, with the release build of 16.04 LTS as well.
I'm using it on vSphere 6.0 U2, 14.04 LTS has always worked fine using
EFI.

Bug description:
  I insatlled Ubuntu16.04 beta2 desktop (64bit) with EFI boot on a VMware ESXi.
  When finish installation and reboot, I notice this on boot:

  /dev/sda2: recovering journal
  /dev/sda2: clean, 184027/950272 files, 1023281/3801088 blocks

  And then it hangs right there

  It happens every time I reboot the VM.
  I reinstall the VM Ubuntu16.04 beta2 for more than three times in different VMware ESXi version and I always encounter this issue when rebooting.

  If I install the VM Ubuntu16.04 beta2 with legacy bios boot. this
  issue won't happen.
