[Bug 1067134] Re: when booting fresh install on i386 system, screen output shows evidence of buffer overwrites

[Steve Langasek]

The attached plymouth-debug log doesn't seem to show any problems with
the boot splash, which would be consistent with your comment that you
didn't see the same symptoms from the initial boot.  We probably need
the plymouth debug log from a boot when the problem *is* reproducible in
order to debug this.
