Operating Systems Linux Debian Can't see anything after debian loads Post 302490549 by pludi on Tuesday 25th of January 2011 04:50:27 AM

I'm not sure if X11 is installed from the first CD (been a while since I used anything but netinst), but I would guess so.

One thing you can try is reboot the machine, and when the GRUB menu comes up, press 'e'. That will let you edit the boot entry. Now move down to the kernel line, press 'e' again, and remove the 'quiet' option if present, and add 'single' at the end. Press ESC, then 'b' to boot. You should see all kinds of diagnostic messages from the kernel and end up on a console in single user mode. Then use your preferred editor to change inittab as described earlier.
