Linux Lite Forums

Hi guys..first of all sorry about my bad english..my desktop has windows 10 and linuxlite 2.8... i can reach grub menu and i can open windows 10..but when i try to open linuxlite, it cannot be opened..it seems loading but desktop is not coming...  (i had upgraded my kernel to 4.5.5  2days ago..maybe the error is that...)

it goes end of the line but no reaction.. i need my chrome passwords.. how can i reach my passwords file ? (by the way i did not create systemback point  

Hi,
I have never experienced this situation myself...
But when you get to the GRUB menu is there not an option to select either another kernel to boot or recovery option.??..

Hitting the ESC key while its hanging will show where the system maybe hanging.. Showing the process/portion of boot, its stuck at, may want to give this a try and report back.. It will help pinpoint..

Another you can try is to initiate the advanced start up (the 2nd LL2.8 option on grub menu)..
You can try going thru the process, there are a couple of option - I've had mine hang, just needed to boot to this and use the "restart"  (think it was the 1st option) it worked but ultimately you may need to launch with additional functionality (the c or e) - the guru's will need to chime in as that's beyond me  :-X

Or as Wirezfree suggests ; is there a previous kernel option

Welcome thou  ;D

i tried other KERNEL but still the same problem... i need chrome passwords and usernames..is there any solution about that?

It depends on how you set-up/use Google.?

You could try to boot Linux Lite Live.
Go into Lite Software and install Chrome.
Open Chrome and Login to Google account.

Then go into Chrome Setting > Advanced Settings > Passwords and Forms
and see if you have anything in the "Manage Passwords"


You may have Sites, User Names and an option to "Show" passwords.


Remember if this works, you are in Live, so you would need to repeat this if you shutdown.

Sorry to hear your problem. I can try to help you.

Try this-
Go to grub boot screen, select "advanced options for linux lite"
Another menu appears, Select an earlier kernel  and try booting from that.

(If this works, then use "Lite Tweaks" Kernel removal tool to remove the non booting kernel.)

i installed Sparkylinux..i think im not gonna install linuxlite never :S

Did you encrypt the install? That's where mine gets and I have to type my encryption password without seeing a place to type it. Once I type it, system boots fine.

Can't tell you how many installs I did thinking I'd messed up.
