Hard lockup on boot if Plymouth disabled boot paramater quiet 3.3 xfce 32bit

[galen]

3.3 XFCE 32bit

motherboard Gigabyte 939

CPU athlon x2 64bit



I did not install Plymouth

the boot process will hard lock after a fews seconds (after switching to framebuffer mode)

"Loading Kernel

Please wait"



the grub.cfg line is

linux   /boot/vmlinuz-3.13-1-486 root=UUID=...  ro  quiet





if I edit the kernel line at grub and remove quiet the machine will boot and go to display manager

linux   /boot/vmlinuz-3.13-1-486 root=UUID=... ro



Suggest a setting for those who do not install plymouth

to remove quiet from the linux kernel line



edit /etc/default/grub

change

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet"

to

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=""



then

update-grub
