All, any help resolving this boot issue would be great!
my assumption is that there is an issue with grub, but i'm not really sure.
OS:
Ubuntu 12.04 LTS 64bit running full disk encryption
Background:
I ran updates and a video driver update and rebooted.
system came up and prompted for crypto password and then booted to a blinking cursor.
I was still able to SSH to the box so I assumed that the video driver caused X to not load. ran through a tut. to remove video driver and reinstall X. then rebooted
at this point system wouldn't boot at all. monitor screen would display "unsupported video format" and would go into sleep mode.
I assumed that somehow grub was messed up and ran through a boot repair which provided this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6904979/
not sure where to go from this point.
I get a grub menu on boot, but after picking an option I come to the same blanks screen with "unsupported video format"
from a live-usb I am able to mount and unlock LVM partitions. all data and file structures seem are present.
where to go from here?? I'm just not sure.
any suggestions?
thanks in advance,
