I had done so a couple of times successfully on test server machines. Upon booting up on the 16.04 system/kernel, after the Grub screen the server console screen is completely blank. Someone suggested using Ctrl-Alt-F1/8, and indeed pressing those hotkeys does toggle through the tty screens. There is no boot process logged to the server console screen. I did have the last 14.04 kernel yet installed, so selected that one from the Grub menu. Booting that 14.04 kernel, then server console display behaves normally. So I suspected perhaps a bum install of the 16.04 kernel. I used the following commands while booted to the 14.04 kernel to reinstall the 16.04 kernel: $ sudo dpkg -P linux-image-4.4.0-59-generic linux-image-extra-4.4.0-59-generic linux-image-generic $ sudo apt-get install linux-image-generic Same results booting the 16.04 kernel after those steps. Hardware spec is an Intel Atom D945GCLF2D boxed motherboard with Intel Atom 330 Dual-Core processor and 2GB RAM. RAID is 3Ware SATA RAID.
