He reported that doesn't work.

I suspect what may be happening is that the screen is not getting
unfrozen. So even though the system is running you won't ever see
anything and pressing escape won't help.
When you boot with pretty boot disabled check to see if powerd is
running. If powerd isn't starting right then I don't think the screen
will get unfrozen.
