Bug Description
Apologies if I have filed this in the wrong place, this is my first bug report.
I have tried the OEM installations on Ubuntu, Ubuntu MATE, Ubuntu GNOME and Kubuntu. It works fine on both Ubuntu and Ubuntu MATE, but on Ubuntu GNOME and Kubuntu, the system crashes and becomes un-bootable after the initial setup. I have tried this on 3 different machines and a VirtualBox VM, and the same issue occurs. This is the same on both 16.04 and 16.10.
The install process works fine, and booting into the OEM configuration works fine, but after clicking "prepare for end-user", the system boots fine and presents the end-user setup screen, but after completing the initial setup, the splash screen appears and hangs there forever. After hard resetting the machine, it just gets stuck on the boot splash screen.
Also, minor quibble with the Ubuntu GNOME initial setup is that it shows the standard Ubuntu welcome images (showcasing the Unity desktop etc) when it is configuring the system after the end-user initial setup is complete. Should this not show the Ubuntu GNOME welcome images when setting up (the same ones used in the non-OEM installer)?
If there is any more information you need me to provide then let me know and I'll happily find it.
What are the specs of the machines affected by this bug?
