If you are not convenient with installing GDM, Could you please confirm that with Plymouth enabled, your system can boot success with INIT3? and may I see other information? When you enable Plymouth, Your VT1, VT2, and VT3 all don't have any output even if you wait for a short time? If there have some, What are they? The last thing is in the next time after boot failure, Please upload the supportlog.
