Note that I got this message via an email bounce from launchpad, so I 
think we'll be communicating directly via email....

I'll be glad to help if I can, but I'm not sure where you are coming 
from so you'll need to answer a few questions first.

Are you able to use Ubuntu after it completes booting?

If so I can tell you how to edit the grub configuration file using the 
GUI text editor.

If you can't boot at all into the GUI, even after waiting through the 
long period of black screen, we will need to go about this another way!

In this case, tell me what you DO see when you boot up. Are you getting 
a grub menu displayed at all, or just a line or two of text at the top 
of the screen followed by the blank screen.
