I installed Ubuntu with my LiveUSB, and it said to restart in order to use your system, so I restarted. Now, I am just stuck in a completely black screen with a blinking _ underscore cursor.

I have already waited 10 minutes for something to happen, but there is no response from the computer.

I don't know what the problem could be, but maybe the message I got during installation that said APT couldn't be configured, so no additional apps will be installed was the problem?

Thanks.

this is one of bugs from 12.04 ( check google ) but i do advise you to repair the grub : ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1581099 – that should fix it!
