Hi AA,
 
Thanks for the info. I will try that. I am guessing is using runlevel 5 as default as well.
I read in some article that we can try to fix this by going into single user mode.
How can I go to this mode and once I am on it, can I perform a normal linux command such as cd, cp or even rm?
 
Regards,
Tri
