I was updating Ubuntu 16.04 from Ubuntu 14.04, but while installing packages it started to show tty screen then I rebooted my machine.

On startup it start to show a message like starting show plymouth...... .I googled and found a command dpkg --configure -a.
After running this command my machine displaying message 

/dev/sda5 :clean, 649920/318464 files, 11434504/12720128 blocks

and not getting started.

  • I suppose that by "not getting started" you mean you do not get the desktop? Is there any disk activity (led) ? If you press Ctrl Alt F1, do you get a login window + prompt ? –  Jun 18 '17 at 16:36

Step #1:

Lets first check your file system for errors.

To check the file system on your Ubuntu partition...

  • boot to the GRUB menu
  • choose Advanced Options
  • choose Recovery mode
  • choose Root access
  • at the # prompt, type sudo fsck -f /
  • repeat the fsck command if there were errors

Step #2:

  • type sudo blkid
  • type cat /etc/fstab
  • put the output from the previous two steps into your question, and I'll take a look
  • type reboot
