thatgraemeguyI know you didn't do anything windows-related like in the question, but the steps to fix a busted boot process are the same06:20
thatgraemeguyalso, good morning everyone :-)06:20
bushtechthatgraemeguy: Thanks for that, I'll have a look. I suspect a kernel problem but what do I know;)06:36
bushtechThis server on bootup goes through the mb welcome screen, flashes up grub and after that nothing. If I access the grub screen on bootup and go to advanced I see versions 4.4.0-81 to 4.4.0-83 available. But none of them will let me boot up. Have gone into recovery mode but I cant get internet access there to do some updates or whatever. So basically snookered now07:46
bushtechWhen running dpkg in recovery mode it wants to install the following: libmircommon 7, libmircore1, libmirplatform15, mir-platform-graphics-mesa-kms12 mir-platform-graphics-mesa-x12 mir-platforminput-evdev6 and upgrade coreutils libmirclient9 mir-client-platform mesa-graphics-drivers-desktop08:36
bushtechso presumably I need to get internet access in recovery mode so that I can install/upgrade08:37
bushtechok semi sorted08:40
bushtechlooks like it got internet access and booted through08:41
bushtechwill have to see if it survives a reboot after all the update/upgades08:44
bushtechgrr! failed restart again. In recovery mode theres some scrolling text and one of them states it failed to load start kernel modules09:22
