[BUG FIXED]

The linux kernel 6.14.0-28 was corrupted after a failed attempt updating to a 
newer Nvidia driver. Later, when I was trying to boot from GRUB menu, it 
proceeded me to 'initramfs' shell and I got stuck there forever, had tried 
'exit', 'reboot', 'repair-boot' but nothing worked but luckily I found out that 
my older kernel version was still there - 6.14.0-27. SO I turned off and on the 
pc again and from GRUB menu, I booted the previous kernel version Ubuntu 
6.14.0-27.27~24.04.1-generic successfully and performed these:
-- sudo apt update
-- sudo apt upgrade

You'll see these lines in the upgrade:
Setting up linux-hwe-6.14-tools-6.14.0-28 (6.14.0-28.28~24.04.1) ...
Setting up linux-hwe-6.14-headers-6.14.0-28 (6.14.0-28.28~24.04.1) ...
Setting up linux-modules-extra-6.14.0-28-generic (6.14.0-28.28~24.04.1) ...
Setting up linux-headers-6.14.0-28-generic (6.14.0-28.28~24.04.1) ...
Setting up linux-modules-nvidia-575-6.14.0-28-generic (6.14.0-28.28~24.04.1) ...

To make sure the latest Nvidia driver is already installed, I typed in termial: 
 
-- cat /proc/driver/nvidia/version

It returned something like this: 
NVRM version: NVIDIA UNIX x86_64 Kernel Module  575.64.03  Wed Jun 25 18:40:52 
UTC 2025

Rebooted and things work fine now
