Fresh install - Boot problem.

Added by Alex Coen about 1 year ago

Newb here,

I've installed NexentaStor CE on my server[0] successfully. But, when booting, it just hangs there with cursor blinking on a black screen. No shell and no error message. I'm not sure where I missed a configuration and don't know where to start troubleshooting. Any pointers?

Thanks in advance, I appreciate it.

Try to enable verbose mode (add -kv to "kernel" line in grub) and boot.

Ah, I forgot to mention that the problem is prior to grub menu, i.e. I don't see the grub menu.
