Ubuntu hibernates to the swap partition. When it boots, it checks the

swap partition to see if there's a saved image in there which it can

load and restart.

 

On your PC, it's not getting past that point.

 

So first, we could do with some info about your system, especially its

memory and swap setup.

 

What kind of computer do you have? What CPU? How much RAM? How big is

its disk? How did you partition the disk? How much swap does it have?
