Found this in my spam trap. Paul, please bottom-post on the mailing list. Also you do not need to PGP sign messages to the list.

When you try to boot the affected OS, can you log in on a text console? If it's in GUI mode (e.g. blank screen) -- Ctrl+Alt+F2 through to F6 If it's stuck in text mode -- Alt-F1 to F6 (Ctrl-)Alt-F7 should re-display the graphical screen. If you *can* log in in text mode, and you're using an Ethernet cable, try to update. sudo apt update sudo apt full-upgrade -y > - From mint I can access the ubuntu file system, and copy the file over Which file?
