Black screen with white cursor at start-up
Asked by
Cindy Cromar
Hello. I have a System 76 netbook (recently purchased) which uses Ubuntu. Just so you know I am pretty ignorant about computers and a complete novice to Ubuntu. Anyway, I installed some updates and it was asking about Grub and I ticked the boxes. Now when I start up the netbook all I get is a black screen with a white cursor (like a DOS screen). I have no idea what to do. I looked at some of the other questions and answers above but I am not sure if I would just make things worse if I just jumped in trying to resolve this issue. If someone could list step-by-step instructions of how to fix this I would be extremely grateful.
