i installed Ubuntu 18.04 LTS for the first time removing windows while installing i created partition for /boot /root /home and swap of 1GB , 20GB , about39GB, 4GB respectively. a dilouge box said ubuntu was successfully installed and asked for a reboot, but it wont load up. little dots below ubuntu logo move for few seconds and stops, a mouse pointer aslo appears but dosent move and it freezes the same way. grub menu seems fine, i can log in from recovery mode. i also tried fsck , dkpg from recovery mode but it dosent work. i dont know what to do i hope someone will help :)

It could be a graphics driver problem. In recovery mode, try going to Software and Updates, and then click Additional Drivers and see if there's any drivers to install.

You may have a problem with an older computer, with an older GPU. Try this...

  • boot to recovery mode
  • choose root access

type:

sudo mount -o remount,rw /      # to remount the disk r/w

sudo pico /etc/gdm3/custom.conf # edit this file

change:

#WaylandEnable=false

to:

WaylandEnable=false

Then reboot.
