Bug Description
In previous Ubuntu release, I am able to switch to console/ttys while installing the system. However it is impossible to switch console/ttys on 16.04 daily images.
Steps to reproduce the issue:
1) Choose 'Install Ubuntu' option in DVD boot menu.
2) After Ubiquity brings up, press Ctrl-Alt-F1
3) Black screen, no prompt is shown

To post a comment you must log in.
This is only broken in the only-ubiquity case (ie. when you pick "Install" rather than "Try") and was already broken in wily release.
That said, it's on my list of things to fix for this cycle, it's just kind of cosmetic so not the top priority. I'll see what I can do, I wasn't that far from making it work.
