How to get verbose output on Ubuntu Server while booting?

Question

There is no output form the init scripts on Ubuntu Server.

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/upstart/+bug/542666

Is there any workaround? Such as installing plymouth or anything else?

Answer 1

Add to /etc/default/grub

GRUB_TERMINAL=console

Then run

sudo update-grub2

This will show kernel debug messages.
