| TJ- | where would bugs about the mini.iso instigated installer be reported against? Issue is that even when installing the most basic option something adds "vt.handof=7 to the boot options so when booting the installed system there's no log-in unless the user knows (how) to switch tty | 20:39 |

| tsimonq2 | TJ-: debian-installer I think. | 20:58 |
| TJ- | tsimonq2: I'll poke around in the code... it's via GRUB's /etc/grub.d/10_linux - seems like it's doing the 'desktop' think not the 'server' by default | 20:59 |
| tsimonq2 | TJ-: OK | 20:59 |
| TJ- | which comes from the setting in /etc/default/grub ... could be that's been set as the default shipped file. I best check | 21:00 |
| TJ- | I suspect this is one that cjwatson will know how to solve in 2 seconds flat! | 21:09 |
| TJ- | Bug #1697968 | 21:11 |
| ubottu | bug 1697968 in grub2 (Ubuntu) "$vt_handoff causes black screen even when nomodeset is used" [Medium,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1697968 | 21:11 |
| cjwatson | Not been my bailiwick for a while, I'm afraid | 21:33 |
| cjwatson | (There isn't a lot of code, but there are a lot of constraints and they fell out of my head some time ago) | 21:34 |
| TJ- | cjwatson: I thought you were the d-i guru :) | 21:35 |
| TJ- | seems to me the sane way to do it would be to have grub not add 'splash', have it added by a core GUI package/service that's installed for all GUIs | 21:37 |
| cjwatson | TJ-: Not so much since https://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~cjwatson/blog/moving-on-but-not-too-far.html | 21:44 |
| TJ- | cjwatson: oh yeah, I recall reading that originally! ha! Your reputation is too persistent | 21:44 |
| TJ- | you'll have to send me a 'right to be forgotten' demand :) | 21:46 |
