I have been unable to get beyond the grub boot screen of the live dvd/usb.
The Try Ubuntu without installing, Install Ubuntu, etc menu shows, and I have tried adding and replacing nomodeset
and no splash
with neither helping.
Even Check disc for defects does not display anything when selected. I am at a complete loss as to how to fix this one. I have had many successful installs in the past, but this is definitely a first for me.
Just as FYI, Gfx card: Geforce GT 635M
I realize this particular card has Optimus on it, however even the alternative boot/command line install fails to load.
Any help would be appreciated.
I realize there have been multiple threads on this, but none of the methods within them have solved this yet.
As reference, I have followed the following page: My computer boots to a black screen, what options do I have to fix it?
Moreover, I have confirmed that the particular iso that I have burned can be booted through Virtual Box.
