The version of my Ubuntu is 16.04 LTS. After Ctrl+Alt+F1, I enter the tty1. The first thing to do is to login. But when I input my username and press the enter, I cannot input the password. And it repeatedly print login incorrect.

Does it works with root? – Prvt_Yadav Feb 14 '19 at 05:25

The main problem is that I cannot input the password for the login username in tty at all. – Felix Zhang Feb 14 '19 at 06:59

2Sounds like another case of this kernel bug: https://askubuntu.com/questions/1113704/tty-doesnt-wait-for-password – steeldriver Feb 14 '19 at 10:34

I think the problem is the kernel version 4.15.0-43-generic.
Remove 4.15-0-44-generic and 4.15-0-45-generic:
sudo apt-mark hold linux-*-4.15.0-4[45]-generic
sudo apt remove linux-*-4.15.0-4[45]-generic
Install 4.15.0-43-generic
sudo apt install linux-{image,headers,modules,modules-extra}-4.15.0-43-generic
