[Bug 670807] [NEW] Black screen blinking white cursor after installing Ubuntu 10.10

 

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

I had 10.04 64-bit running fine on my machine for a couple months. 10.10
came out and I decided to upgrade to the 64-bit version. When I
restarted my computer after the installation, I got stuck at a black
screen with a blinking white cursor. I tried reinstalling with a usb
stick, had the same problem. Is it a graphics driver issue perhaps? I'm
running at ATI Radeon 5750. Also note that I had this problem when I
installed 10.04 for the first time as well. The way I fixed it then was
by running some terminal commands in the live CD boot. I tried doing
that, but found I couldn't even load my live CD anymore. Does anyone
know what's going on here?
