[Bug 1447356] Re: ubuntu gnome does not boot after install - blank screen after grub menu

[Ronan Jouchet]

Hi, I am hitting the same exact symptoms (blank screen after grub), but
my case might differ:

1. I don't have any kernel oops in my syslog
2. Boot fails if I use the default grub entry, but succeeds if I use "recovery mode" then just resume booting.

Are we sure this bug is about the kerneloops, or might we be hitting the
same issue?

Specs: machine was originally on 14.10 and was  `do-release-upgrade`d.
Arch is x86_64 and GPU is nv using package nvidia-346-updates.
