After removing some drivers / packages Ubuntu 20.04 is not loading any more. Following commands were executed:
sudo apt-get remove --purge radeon*
sudo apt --purge autoremove
It stops loading at the following message:
/dev/sda5: clean xxx/xxx files, xxx/xxx blocks
underscore indicator is blinking but desktop UI is not loading. I've tried following command:
sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
it didn't help. Is there any way to fix the UI load without uninstalling the entire OS?
It is possible to boot in the rescue mode and login to Ubuntu, so that I still can login and access the OS through the command line.
PS. I do have enough space on the disk.
fsck
message is more likely because the OP has not cleanly rebooted their machine (eg. didn't use SysRq commands to direct kernel to safely reboot; instead possibly used the power-off thus forced unclean off & creating file-system issues that caused file-system check; it's a logical error not actual drive error) @David. Semen; being specific about what you did remove though would help us to help you. You can use live media to access your files. – guiverc Sep 24 '21 at 07:36sudo apt-get remove --purge radeon*
and after that I didsudo apt --purge autoremove

. WHY? What problem were you trying to solve? Whatever that was the solution certainly isn't to uninstall the only driver that works. – ChanganAuto Sep 24 '21 at 11:59
