Those asterisks are also red, and moving left to right, the same as seen during shutdown when something won't politely die. Only two things look interesting to me under "list units:: # systemctl list-units getty@tty1.service loaded inactive dead start Getty on tty1 plymouth-quit-wait.service loaded activating start start Hold until boot process f Since tty1 would be the console, it makes sense that it would be dead. I have no idea what a "plymouth" is. dmesg showed nothing that looked wrong. There is no problem with partition space. Curt-
