My system will only boot to a GRUB menu. I can not resume and get to the graphic interface. If I select safe graphic mode the system seems to hang. Blank screen and no disc activity. If I select command mode I can run startx and get the graphical interface however it is obviously the root desktop.
Attached is my bootifno
