Hitting F2 after the bootsplash first appears but before it is to
the point of showing the message saying you can hit F2 for verbose, makes the
livecd ask for a username/password instead of going directly into the prompt
as it should. As the password is scrambled by this point, the only option is
to reboot and be patient before hitting F2.

There is a bug for the test LiveCDs because I don't *want* separate bugs.  I'm overworked enough as it is so having everything in one place is pretty much the only way anything will get done in the 8 hours I have left before snapshot.
