System: Ubuntu 14.04 LTS virtual machine under VMWare Player on Windows 8.
------------------
Issue started when: I was running some Tensorflow LSTM code (heavy duty for the memory perhaps) on ubuntu and the system froze. I restarted my VM ignoring the warning about such restart, and it simply failed to boot.
First issue: Completely blank black screen, not even a BIOS welcome!
What I tried: Did a system reboot of the host (windows 8).
-------
Issue 2: Now, while there was no longer a blank black screen, I could not get to Ubuntu. '/sbin/init: No such file or directory error' and also 'mounted file system with ordered data mode'. Complete message in the image below

One thing to note, I was also not able to get to BIOS (despite trying F2 and escape key multiple times as suggested on the first screen). I would always get to grub menu, where I can try to boot (enter key), change bootparams (e key), or enter grub command console (c key)
------------------
Counter: I launched LiveCD of the ubuntu, by providing path to local ISO file as a CD drive to VMWare Player. Tried repair using boot-repair as suggested here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Bo...ng_Boot-Repair
My log here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/23615092/
shut down command did not shut the system down for like 2-3 minutes. So I turned it off ignoring the VMWare warning, and restarted the machine. Same error ('mounted file system with ordered data mode', /sbin/init etc.) now.
Kindly help!
