Yes, it happened to me long ago,
after which I decided always to boot to a raw terminal, then do 'startx'.

You need to use System Rescue or similar to get into the box,
then change your boot procedure to boot to a raw terminal.


Or add softlevel=single to the boot line in grub. That would be, edit the grub line before booting.

I think there is a interactive mode or something too. It is done by hitting the "I" key during the first part of the boot up. Just say No to xdm or whatever starts your GUI.

Lots of options here.  lol
