Our Ubuntu Server 18.04 LTS is no longer booting up.

Here is what's happening.

(please forgive the screenshot but I can't copy'n'paste...

Screenshot from Hyper-V Manager

Any idea on what is going on?



EDIT1:




  • This is a virtual machine hosted on Windows Server 2008 R2.

  • This VM has been stable for years.

  • Upgrades have been made from Ubuntu 12.04 LTS to Ubuntu 16.04LTS and then 18.04 LTS in the past year.

    The virtual keyboard is getting disconnected and reconnected. Why that is, I'm not sure. Try to log in and see what happens.

  • It's already booted up and at the login prompt, in your screenshot. Just type your username and password.
