[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

What happens?
I get a blank screen every time I boot. I need to key in CTRL-F6 then CTRL-F7 to get the spalhscreen prompt. 100% repeatable bug.

What should happen?
The boot sequence should automatically show the splash screen and prompt for dm-crypt passphrase entry.
