Bug Description

This was discovered when booting an Oneiric daily build from 20110831 - the i386 Ubuntu CD image.

During the boot splash screen a cursor appears at the end of the .... line and started blinking. I managed to capture a screenshot of it and it is attached.

I saw this again with a Precise Live CD - it happens towards the end of the boot process before switching the Try Ubuntu / Install Ubuntu screen.
