    Randomly freezes on boot

    Sometimes my Ubuntu does not boot. After boot menu (Ubuntu is default, W10 another option, 10 sec to choose) it freezes. Alt+sysrq, ctrl+alt+del, ctrl+alt+Fx, nothing works. It also does not respond ping. So i have to hard reset. Following boot, the boot menu gives me 30 sec instead of default 10 sec. During boot, it shows


    /dev/sda3: recovering journal
    /dev/sda3: clean xxx/xxxx files, xxx/xxx blocks


    and everything goes fine. When it happens, no syslog is written.


    Ubuntu 18.04.3, 64 bit CPU. I thought it could be the SSD. So i bought a new and bigger one. But got the same error. Fresh install. I do not got the error every time. It's completely random.


    Any ideas?

    there is no other text than those 2 lines? not even temporarily?

    do you get those 2 lines every time it freezes or just when it comes up?

    how much time do you give it to come up?

    Thank you for your reply.
    There is all the stuff during a normal boot. The only difference i can notice are this 2 lines. But i will get all the messages next time it freezes. I'm using the PC very often.
