On occasion, pressing Ctrl+Alt+F1 does not reveal the tty input. Instead there is a single non-flashing horizontal cursor on a black screen.
Does it remain black indefinitely, or does a login prompt eventually appear?> It stays black indefinitely. I have waited for half a day before restarting just to see if it reappears.
