"Oh no" Error screen and no access to TTY

Support
1

When the system boots, it displays the "Oh no! Something has gone wrong." error message. I have no idea how to fix this since I'm not able to access the TTY (Ctrl + Alt + F1 or F2 not working). When I press the keys for the TTY shortcut, it only displays ^[[[A for a few seconds after returning to the error screen.

Hi @_paul,

So I think you’ll have to chroot into the system, and peruse the logs that way.

You could type “e” at the grub menu, to be able to edit the grub commandline
and add a “3” (without the quotes) to the end
then boot - it will boot to TTY without trying to start the graphical session
(also called runlevel 3)
