[03-07-17 13:10]: when in jan 2017 support for 13.2 ceased, i downloaded 42.2 and installed it:
on my laptop: ok, with some minor difficulties.
on my wifes PC: ok, with some minor difficulties.
on my PC: installed OK, BUT: at first reboot after install and ever since ONLY a black display. no reaction to any input device, not even Ctrl+Alt+Del, also no reaction to hardware button on CDROM to eject medium but light indicating PC-On is lit.
when the grub boot screen appears, type "e" and when the edit screen comes up, add to the end of the "linux ... " line, 3
see if you get tty screens and can type there, then we can go farther
Bearing in mind that if graphical system was selected during installation then he can only get to runlevel 1 or 5. So replace 3 with 1 Dave P you may wish to rething this statement. and he probably is unable to achieve anything at "runlevel 1/S"
