I had two problem when I filed this bug.

First, I couldn't use a keyboard to switch to CLI at boot time. This one is working now.

Second, I couldn't switch to interactive boot by pressing 'I' key. This one still doesn't work. 

It looks like I need to file different bug for second problem.

Thanks for replying. I'm glad the original problem got solved.

You're correct, the second issue should go into a seperate bug report.

I don't know whether the suggestion given here is correct:

I don't have time to try it, sorry.
