Host OS: Ubuntu Desktop 14.04 LTS / Unity
System crashed while using PyCharm / Python3.
Booting takes forever and stuck at the purple screen with
the Ubuntu logo and the five dots cycling.
How to fix?
So, I tried Ubuntu repair methods suggested here...
How to Fix an Ubuntu System When It Won't Boot
http://www.howtogeek.com/196740/how-to-fix-an-ubuntu-system-when-it-wont-boot/
GRUB Boot Loader is accessible but using the recovery mode did not help.
It hangs with "Loading extension GLX" but I forget which command I used.
Then, I tried to...
Reinstall Ubuntu While Keeping Files and Programs
but, I am instead given the following options...
===========================================================
This computer currently has Ubuntu 14.04.4 LTS on it. What would you like
to do?
- Erase Ubuntu 14.04.4 LTS and reinstall
Warning: This will delete all your Ubuntu 14.04.4 LTS programs,
documents, photos...
- Install Ubuntu 14.04.4 LTS alongside Ubuntu 14.04.4 LTS
Documents, music, and other personal files will be kept. You can choose
which operating system...
- Erase disk and install Ubuntu
- Something else
===========================================================
Perhaps, "Install Ubuntu 14.04.4 LTS alongside Ubuntu 14.04.4 LTS" is the
safest ?
It's easy to do a reinstall without wiping documents and application
configurations/settings PROVIDING you have a separate / (root) and /home
partition.
During partition you select Manual partitioning and assign the existing
partitions being VERY careful to NOT format the existing /home.
But / where the OS and all applications reside will need to be
formatted/deleted/overwritten.
Keeping the configuration on your /home might cause the old error to be
included in the new install...
Although, you error seems to be the system, not the applications.
