Problems Booting

[SCBrazil]

After three months without using Kubuntu, I did an update and can no longer boot.
The system boots okay to the splash screen and then I get a black screen with the words

ian: login

I put my login and password. It appears to start booting again but then reverts back to the black screen as sudo. It is as if I am in a terminal and cannot get out of there.

Any suggestions?

Re: Problems Booting

Verify that you actually have enough space left in your root partition. Reboot and at the Grub menu select recovery mode. From the CLI type:

df -hT

If your / partition reports at or very near 100% (Use%) then you need to do some house cleaning to regain space.
