Thread: Help with installation & grub


forgive ignorance, i'm complete newbie.

on years i've gotten tired of windows's quirks , have been putting off learning linux. i've taken plunge , trying ubuntu server 12.04.1 , running( no problem desktop version).

problem have follows: i"ve been through entire installation process , chose ssh server instalation. upto reboot runs fine, on reboot grub 1.99 loader comes (see attached) , when select "ubuntu, linux 3.2.0-29-generic startup entries load , screen goes blank.
question this: how linux prompt(not grub prompt) , how set automatically boot directly server , not grub prompt?

i know on there gui programs on ubuntu help, since probable don't have gui installed, sorry not know how through command line, have seen tutorial customising grub through command line.

since can't seem boot try using [alt]+[f2] when blank screen comes on should allow use tty2. hope thats correct name. [alt] , arrows keys work allow go tty2-tty8.
