Whenever I try to boot Deepin in recovery-mode, I first see the usual debug info being printed on the screen, then nothing, as if it's waiting for something. It never manages to produce a terminal, so recovery mode (for me) doesn't work at all!!! This has been the situation across several kernel updates, so it does not seem to be kernel-related. Has anyone come across this?

Maybe it's just a warning message, You do not have to worry about.

When you start in 'recovery-mode', you boot to a terminal session where you can then carry out repairs (if you know what you are doing!) on your Linux installation.
On my Deepin installation, I NEVER get this far. It starts by booting 'normally', then freezes! Whereas, in normal-mode, Deepin boots normally. Like I mentioned, this has been the case over at least the last three kernel versions. Since I've been using Linux, I have never yet had a distro that refuses to boot in recovery-mode, but will boot in normal-mode without a problem.
What I don't understand is why no one else seems to suffer from this!?!?!? Deepin 2012 didn't suffer from this problem on my hardware setup.
