Up through OS X 10.11.1 I have been able see the log files being run.  Now after creating a  10.11.2 image with AUTODMG using same method as all of the previous, it is hidden behind an Apple loading screen.  It's using the exact same imagr_config.plist workflow.  Is anyone else experiencing this?  Everything works fine, its just handy to be able to view what's going on.  Thanks.

I'm not imaging 10.11.2 yet, but am building an image now to test. This is a pretty severe bug if it's reproducible.

I just rolled an updated 10.11.2 image with autoDMG and gave it a test and did not have any issues.

That said, I seldom do see the first boot log.  Seems like it completes before the log window ever displays, then reboots and Munki takes over from there.

When you say it is hidden behind the Apple loading screen, what exactly do you mean?

The screen shows the Apple and progress bar below.  The progress bar just moves slowly, i'm assuming while it's running the First Boot Script, eventually reboots and everything is ready to go.  This is my workflow:

I do not think this is an Imagr issue.  I had a batch of machines that exhibited the same behavior while Munki was bootstrapping.  For some reason the login window was not loading.  I could ssh in and killall loginwindow  to get the login window to load.
