System freezes during startup on Ubuntu Desktop version 19.04.
It might be a new version or something different. Make sure to refresh the system during the nomodeset session; this ensures the basic driver is used and fixes problems with the Plymouth boot logo. Once everything is updated, restart your machine. If the problem continues, try rebooting with nomodeset again and install the graphics drivers from the PPA. The relevant PPA link is: https://launchpad.net/~graphics-drivers/...ubuntu/ppa
Remove vt.handoff=1 first. If still not successful, clear the quiet splash and vt.handoff again, then remove all of them once more before adding nomodeset.
It seems there are some PCI-related warnings. Have you updated the latest BIOS? Have you attempted to switch the GPU to a different PCI slot? Resetting the BIOS? Adjusting PCI settings in the BIOS? https://superuser.com/questions/275050/l...c-to-linux They mention it could be a BIOS setting that doesn’t work well with Linux, noting the exact issue. They installed Linux by following these steps: set default BIOS, install a fresh Linux distribution (we tried Fedora 15 and Ubuntu 10.04, 64 Bit), changed the BIOS configuration (activated RAID). For reference, I encountered the same problem on a Toshiba netbook (model not remembered). Booting from a LiveCD worked, but when I booted from the hard drive it would freeze for over ten minutes before continuing. The fix involved changing the SATA controller to "compatibility". I might be forgetting some details. I’ll update this post tonight with more info. But try what I said earlier first.
The setup on the Sata controller is already compatible. I eliminated the quiet splash and vt.handoff, then added the nomodeset. It loaded successfully until it reached the message: "Started Update UTMP about System Runlevel Changes," after which it froze again. When I press the power button to shut down the machine, modules appear to unload and drives seem to become unmounted.
