Installs ok, reboots and than blank screen?

[JohnnyBeGood]

Hi,

Installed v4.4 without any issue, rebooted and when it starts to boot it I get blank screen with no errors.
This is on Lenovo ThinkServer TS140 http://shop.lenovo.com/us/en/systems/servers/towers/ts140/
Any suggestions?

I was able to bypass past this issue by editing
nano /etc/default/grub
and adding nomodeset to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="nomodeset"
afterwards I ran update-grub and rebooted .
Hope it helps someone!

Now I'm stuck with no internet connectivity even though I set correct IP during the setup. Can't figure out how to reset network or to set it as DHCP?

Found solution for no internet connectivity. Hope it helps someone.

Ran nano /etc/network/interfaces and it was showing vmbr0 as static IP configured interface, not sure where it got vmbr0 but that was the problem.
Ran ip link show to find interface where network cable was connected and it was eth2 because I have 1 onboard and 1 network card with 2 ports.
Configured nano /etc/network/interfaces as follows:
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

auto eth2
allow-hotplug eth2
iface eth2 inet dhcp

Afterwards ran service networking restart and voila I got internet!
The reason why I do DHCP is because on my pfSense router I have it configured so that specific IP is given to the server each time it boots.
