No display (text only) after expanding disk

Post by Alan8 »

This is the second time this has happened! The Ubuntu 18.04 VM comes up in text mode. How can I restore the graphics display?

A bit more information. Googling shows there's a "runlevel". Typing "runlevel" at my VM terminal gets the response "N 5". No idea what this means.

How are you expanding the disk? If by command line, please enter the exact command. If by the main Virtualbox window, please list the exact steps.
