Bug Description
Starting last night, Ubuntu images started showing an error message after the isolinux "press any key" screen but before plymouth. This is affecting today's daily images. Screenshot attached.
"Undefined video mode number: 0
Press <ENTER> to see video modes available, <SPACE> to continue, or wait 30 sec"
cjwatson said that this was related to the kernel:
arch/x86/
I don't believe this affects installed Ubuntu with grub2. The Ubuntu install images use isolinux instead.

Would it be possible for you to test the latest upstream kernel? Refer to https:/ /wiki.ubuntu. com/KernelMainl ineBuilds . Please test the latest v3.6 kernel[0] (Not a kernel in the daily directory) and install both the linux-image and linux-image-extra .deb packages.
Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please remove the 'needs- upstream- testing' tag. Please only remove that one tag and leave the other tags. This can be done by clicking on the yellow pencil icon next to the tag located at the bottom of the bug description and deleting the 'needs- upstream- testing' text.
If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tag 'kernel- fixed-upstream' .
If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the tag: 'kernel- bug-exists- upstream' .
If you are unable to test the mainline kernel, for example it will not boot, please add the tag: 'kernel- unable- to-test- upstream' .
Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug as "Confirmed".
Thanks in advance.
