How do I access the recovery mode in Ubuntu 18.04? I don't see any form of grub bootloader when the system boots - it just goes straight into the OS.

To access recovery mode, as soon as the system boots up, you'll need to hold down SHIFT. You should then see the GNU Grub menu. From here, chose "Advanced Options", then select the option that says "Ubuntu .. recovery mode" or something similar.

2On UEFI systems it is usually ESC key. – Pilot6 Aug 22 '19 at 18:01

That's strange. Shift works fine for me whether it is BIOS or UEFI. – Daniel M. Aug 22 '19 at 18:03
