corrado@corrado-HP-aa-p5:~$
and problem disappeared changing /etc/default/grub:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash" into
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash nomodeset"
My problem was as follows:
press power button, Grub menu appears, select partition p5 or wait (p5 is
default) -> black screen, wait ... nothing happens but system led is on and
disk led blinks for 30-40 seconds, press again power button, after few seconds
the system led start blinking as in suspend, press power button again, now the
logon screen appear. Should i open a different bug?
