I am having a bit of trouble with my linux mint 18.3 (based on Ubuntu 16.04) since I can't manage to properly boot it on my computer.
I have a dual-boot and windows launch properly, so there is that.
I used grub to boot Linux after switching quiet splash to nomodeset in the boot command and I got those errors :
I used this good old google to get some info and the only things I could find didn't really help me solve my problems.
Someone had conflict with SELinux and it is not installed on my computer.
I also tried to check systemctl status *** but ctrl+alt+F1 doesn't give me any shell prompt. Even in recovery mode, I can only access the root shell prompt before the system tries to boot, once the failure occurs, the shell prompt becomes unavailable for some reasons.
I did manage to get a tty1 by using upstart, so I have access to my drive (and I am currently saving my files on a remote server before performing anymore tinkering) but the tty interface is not really the most user-friendly interface to work with, especially since I am usually working with software such as Qgis. (I am making maps)
Can I do anything to get my computer to boot properly ?
I would rather do this than reinstalling Linux.
thank you for reading.

From thettytry:systemctl isolate graphica.targetafter logging in. That's a command to manually start a graphical session. If it doesn't succeed, maybe there will be some useful debugging output.

18.3 is bugged, nothing but problems, reinstall previous version. they really dropped the ball with that release.

I might just reinstall, yeah. I'll probably get back to a previous more stable version.
