That's actually good news then. If you can safely wipe the machine and reinstall then it sounds like a fresh install might eliminate whatever the cause of the problem is.

The System is accessible and working via SSH. After a thread in bug 1889377, @vanvugt suggested to me the following procedure: [QUOTE] We would need to see the system log from one of those failed boots. To do that please: 1. Reproduce a failed boot with nvidia-340. 2. Uninstall nvidia-340 and after rebooting collect the log from the previous failed boot. For example, to collect the last three boots run: journalctl -b-1 > prevboot-1.txt journalctl -b-2 > prevboot-2.txt journalctl -b-3 > prevboot-3.txt and then please open a new bug with those logs attached. [/QUOTE] Attached the three files. Aditional info: 1) Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS 2) nvidia-340 3) system boots 4) system is not booting Thanks for helping.
