Phillip, I'm unable to reproduce this bug. If I set 'break=bottom' in grub, I see the plymouth splash and then I'm dropped to an initramfs prompt. Then when I ^D the shell, I see plymouth again and the boot continues.
Please run 'apport-collect 962764' from the affected machine, so we can see what hardware and kernel drivers are involved.
