Hello guys,
Yesterday I installed Oracle's Virtual Box and Ubuntu on it and the OS ran fine, I even installed a few software on it. Today I turned on my pc to continue learning, I went and started Ubuntu on the Virtual Box and the OS loads, asks for the login info and after I entered it a black screen shows up and that was it, the OS never loaded. I uninstalled/reinstalled Virtual Box and Ubuntu several times and got the same result. As suggested per an Udemy course I started on Linux I insert a guest additions CD image and then ran on terminal sudo ./VBoxLinuxAdditions.run in order to get full screen and improve the overall performance, do not know if this may be the issue. Anyway if anyone could point me to the right path or solution to this I'd really appreciate it. Thanks!
Update: on the login menu I access terminal and type the following, it works and let's me enter but after leaving Ubuntu I still have the same issue...
sudo dpkg --configure -a
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade -y
sudo reboot
Fixed! For anyone that may have my problem, nost likely noobs like me, just choose Ubuntu on Wayland (bottom right corner) upon typing the password.
