Can only boot via Recovery mode

http://askubuntu.com – I am using a ASUS 1225C netbook, with intel gma3600. Because graphics support was not available, i followed the instructions given here. Now when I get the grub screen, If i select the first option (the one that I always used to select), i just get a blank screen and nothing else. Instead if I select the second option (recovery mode), and then select "normal" option in the menu that appears, I am able to log in and get a perfect 1366 x 768 resolution. Everything looks better than it was before I tried the cedal trail fix mentioned above. Why am I unable to boot using the usual first option (HowTos)

I am trying to download Ubuntu successfully as a dual boot with Windows 7. I made a CD for it but for some reason when I select Ubuntu from the boot manager the installation will come up I can either wait for the timer to complete or go through GRUB and select an option from there (I did both, no success), and once I select an option the screen goes blank. Suggestions?

Thanks Mika :KS

To cut the story short, because of recent issues with a distribution upgrade I did now I have to play around with the Recovery Mode. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2074252

I'm able to gain access to the Recovery Mode without any issues. The problem I have is that I'm not able to gain read/write access to my filesystem.

Hi,

My monitor broke the other day and so I had to go out and get a new one. The resolution of my old monitor and the resolution set on ubuntu is 1440x900. The new max resolution of my new monitor is 1360x768.

System : Ubuntu 12.04 with Gnome. 64 bit.

Today, when I was adjusting the display driver, the system started behaving abnormally, first the menu was missing (both in Gnome & Unity) and sometimes the display was coming with a purple tinge. I was trying to remove the Nvidia driver, then there was a power failure and I was completely messed up.

I’m trying to figure what to do with random failures to boot.

My old HP Presario R3000 with AMD Athlon XP-M sometimes boots, sometimes hangs with a blank screen during boot, and sometimes hangs on shutdown.

Hello friends, I have bought a HP-g6-2230sa laptop, which comes with win8. I have managed to install fedora18 in it. But the problem is I cannot make it to boot f18 by default. The usual process to boot to fedora is: start the machine-> be very fast to press F9-> select Fedora (or else it will go to os boot manager and will boot win8).

I've downloaded the .iso file (ubuntu-12.10-desktop-i386.iso), and then used Unetbootin to make my 16Gb Kingston pendrive a live-USB. Then I restart my notebook (samsung r580) and access the BIOS. I select the option to boot from USB, and restart again. The options screen appears.

I got a new laptop (Asus K55A) and I am trying to dual boot ubuntu along with windows 7 (boots into UEFI mode and has GPT partition). I finished installation from a LiveCD. I was able to use ubuntu from LiveCD for most common applications, video/graphics/audio/wireless/touchpad all seemed to work fine. When I start my computer, I see the grub menu with ubuntu and windows option.
