Cannot start Ubuntu: shows endlessly Ubuntu logo

Question

I can't start my computer anymore (nothing changed). It shows the Ubuntu logo with the five white dots becoming orange and white again, endlessly. No error, no login screen.

You can boot from Ubuntu Live cd/dvd/usb, start Disks Utility, try to see the SMART data and test your SDA disk.
You may have to check you SSD manufacturers web site for specific SMART software though.
