As a tester I kindly ask for an easy way to activate textual boot option. Why?

* The graphical boot might hang when changing the graphic driver - e.g. personal experience when trying to activate a NVIDIA driver.

* Textual booting facilitates error seeking - e.g. where does the boot process hang?

* A fast boot is the goal of all of us. On a global scale it even saves co2! ;-)
People out there don't always have the newest hardware, which might minimize the text/graphic boot time difference.

This discussion remembers me of the Ubuntu 10.04 window position problem (close/minimze/maximize position).

So please (whoever is in charge), choose a standard option (= Ubuntu Politics), but enable everyone to change to the other options in a simple way. Thank you.
