  (grey circle of friends/Ubuntu logo)
  "Starting early crypto disks"
  "Starting init crypto disks"
  "Starting remaining crypto disks"

  Sound: drum intro (with some disjointed-wave-popping / clipping)

- Trying to switch to TTY with Ctrl-Alt-F2, still blank screen. 
- Hitting NumLock lights numlock led on keyboard. 
- Hitting Ctrl-Alt-F3 switches numlock led off.

  Hitting Ctrl-Alt-Delete brings up Ubuntu logo and ejects cd tray with
  "remove cd" message.
  
  I repeated the process with "failsafe graphics" in the boot menu. This
  time an ncurses message flashed by (no time to see what it says) before
  screen blanks again, followed by the drum sound. This time the
  numlock/tty trick does not work, but Ctrl-Alt-Delete initiates the
  shutdown process.
  
  "Check CD for defects" says cd is fine.
