Unable to boot ubuntu16.04

Question

Getting lvmetad is not active yet , using direct activation during sysinit

/dev/mapper/dhcp--10--47--100--93-vg-root:clean

We are able to boot through bootable USB.

@David Foerster Actually this is server pc , I don't know what has gone wrong .Any solution to recover other than reinstalling.

If you keep running into errors, boot-repair, has solved quite a few of these issues for me. Might not be the fix but is worth a chance in my opinion. If you're unfamiliar, from your live USB:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:yannubuntu/boot-repair
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install -y boot-repair && boot-repair
boot-repair

unable to connect to network .. :( – Amruth A Jun 14 '18 at 10:14
I forgot to mention, you'll need an internet connection to do this. If you're able to, plug an ethernet in for ease. If not, you'll have to use the applet on the top bar, or search for a program containing the word wifi/net (I cannot remember which program it is). – Ben Hayward Jun 14 '18 at 10:34

I'm sorry, I'm not sure why the internet isn't working. Perhaps someone else has an idea? – Ben Hayward Jun 14 '18 at 11:54
is it possible i can download boot-repair from other place and copy it in usb and install here ? – Amruth A Jun 14 '18 at 12:02
@AmruthA You can download Boot-Repair-Disk and use it instead of the Ubuntu live USB in this procedure. – Melebius Jun 14 '18 at 13:30
