Booting stuck at blinking underscore with distorted cursor screen
Posted: 5. Feb 2021, 10:22
First of all, thanks to everyone contributing to this community. I have found some really good explanation posts here.
My Ubuntu-20.04 VM on VirtualBox 6.1.16 has suddenly stopped working and I am not sure of the reason.
It's showing the booting Ubuntu logo and at the moment where it's supposed to show the login screen, it is showing a blinking underscore with a distorted cursor.
I have tried a bunch of solutions but none of them seems to work. Maybe someone else can have a look the log file suggest something.
Specs:
- Host: 64-bit Windows 10 Home Single Language
- i7 8750H 2.2 GHz, 4 Cores, 2 given to Ubuntu VM
- RAM: 16 GB, 10GB given to Ubuntu VM
- Video memory: 128MB, 64MB given to Ubuntu VM
- Graphics Controller on VM: VMSVGA with 3D acceleration enabled
- Storage: VBoxGuesAddition.iso 60MB, 50GB dynamically allocated storage
