boot-splash and Plymouth screens limit useful output so you'll have to go through a long list of commands:
================================================== ==============
STEP 1:
-choose recovery mode at grub
STEP 2:
-drop to a root prompt
STEP 3:
-type:
and login
STEP 4:
-then type:
STEP 5:
-when xinit starts type:
- for ubuntu OR:
- if you have it OR flux/openbox & - if you have it OR:
- for xubuntu
STEP 6:
-then type:
-for ubuntu OR:
-for xubuntu
STEP 7:
-lastly type:
-for networking
================================================== =============
then see if apt can fix it:
Code:
sudo apt-get -f || echo "ERROR 0"
sudo rm /var/lib/apt/lists/partial/* || echo "ERROR 1: no partial packages - harmless error"
sudo rm /var/cache/apt/*.bin || echo "ERROR 2"
sudo apt-get clean || echo "ERROR 3"
sudo apt-get autoclean || echo "ERROR 4"
sudo apt-get autoremove || echo "ERROR 5"
sudo apt-get update || echo "ERROR 6"
sudo apt-get --fix-broken upgrade || echo "ERROR 7"
I've really got to get a shorter script!
