I recently rent a VPS with OS ubuntu-18.04-x86_64 LTS already installed. Then I tried to upgrade the OS to ubuntu-20.04.3 LTS, using the do-release-upgrade command.

After finishing the installation, and trying to reboot, it's getting stuck on the black welcome screen of Ubuntu 20.04.3 LTS.

"Welcome to Ubuntu 20.04.3 LTS!" further boot/init messages follow

I try to reboot the VPS, and press the Esc key up until GNU GRUB version 2.02 black screen shows up, with 2 options : Ubuntu & Advanced options for Ubuntu.

Choosing the advanced options will bring me to another 4 options :

  • Ubuntu, with Linux 5.4.0-81-generic
  • Ubuntu, with Linux 5.4.0-81-generic (recovery mode)
  • Ubuntu, with Linux 4.15.0-154-generic
  • Ubuntu, with Linux 4.15.0-154-generic (recovery mode)

After several times of trying, I ended up to choose the Recovery Mode, choose the resume or root options from the Recovery Menu, in order to get to the login screen.

I happened to notice the message sh: O: Can't open /virt/swfix.sh right before the login screen shows up.

Can anyone help me to solve this issue, so that the system can reboot normally and directly to the login screen without having to choose Recovery Mode? I'm a newbie in Linux.

Thanks, Yos.

I have the same problem on my VPS, but if I press Alt + F1 (or any other function key), I can reach the login screen.

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
