    Stop the installation to the grub menu.
    Press e to edit the menu entry you choose (e.g Install Ubuntu) and it will lead to edit the boot parameters.
    Find the line which ends with quiet splash and add nomodeset in front of it. ...
    Press Ctrl+X or F10 to boot with this new parameter
    I will follow this. Brian

    Hi after splash at the moment it says $vt_handoff. Do I delete this or insert nomodeset? Thanks Brian

    When you press e is this what you see?

    Code:
    linux /boot/vmlinuz-<kernel-version> root=UUID=<uuid> ro quiet splash $vt_handoff
    If yes, change it to this:
    Code:
    linux /boot/vmlinuz-<kernel-version> root=UUID=<uuid> ro quiet splash nomodeset
    Then Ctrl+X to exit and boot.

    Anything?

    No luck, it tried. I had a glimpse of the purple boot screen, and then some lines of text with Plymouth in green, then back to the login. Is there a way of posting a screen shot?

    Get to a TTY session again and run this, I have a hunch this is a GDM issue.

    That method was discribed by Rubi1200>>>Ctrl+Alt+F3 at the login screen.

    In fact at that tty session please rum:
    Code:
    sudo apt purge gdm3
    sudo apt install gdm3

    [This happened after upgrading to the latest supported version yesterday. I am sure i did a partition when installing ubuntu. /QUOTE]

    How did you do this upgrade? Did you do an update/upgrade to the newer release or did you download the iso file, write it to a usb and install to the same partition(s)?
