Looks like the graphical boot is switched off with the "rhgb" and
"quiet" options for the kernel command line being removed on this
machine - I think that's done via /etc/default/grub by editing the
line starting with "GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX". Maybe compare both files on
the two machines: they might explain the graphical/non-graphical
install ..
There is nothing wrong with the regular boot. It continues to use plymouth.
This was only the reboot that ran the upgrade.
