Simply select failsafe boot in the bootloader menu.

Hello

Did not work.
Any way, is to be used as ssh remote server, not a option to change manually every time.

Thanks.

"Did not work" is not a sufficient description of what happened and what you expected to happen.

If you would have provided the last statement from the beginning, that would have been clearer.
Code: Select all
systemctl set-default multi-user.target
as root will change the default boot to runlevel 3.

Please ruir, don't forget to mark the topic [SOLVED].
You can do so, by editing the subject/title in the first message in this topic.
Write [SOLVED] to the left of subject/title, thanks ahead. ;)
