18.04 hangs on boot after system software update












1














I have two users on a fresh install of Ubuntu 18.04.



Normally I work with user1. Today I switched to user2 and started software update. (As far as I remember a few things were installed and some unnecessary ones removed).



When I rebooted it stopped for a long time at the first dot of the splash screen. So I pressed Ctrl+Alt+Del. Then the system shut down.



Now system boots until the splash screen and then switches to text mode. Last message:



ubuntu 18.04 boot  "Started GNOME Display Manager. Dispatcher Service ....rfkill Watch.   
Started Restore /etc/resolv.conf if the system crashed before the ppp link was shut down."


With Ctrl+Alt+F1/F2 I can log in. The first time a message appeared that Canonical live patch applied 0 or so.



The machine is normally running 7/24 and is very important to me! How should I proceed?

EDIT:



now comes:
ubuntu 18.04 boot "started GNOME Display Manager. Dispatcher Service ....d before the ppp link was shut down"

    Exactly which kernel? (It's important - one has a critical bug in process as of 03 July 2018)

  • I can login user ctrl + alt + f1 f2. uname -r says 4.15.0-24-generic. I'm new to linux. Should I proceed as described here? askubuntu.com/questions/1051555/…
