Fedora fails to boot on mensage: 'starting terminate plymouth boot screen'


I recently updated my fedora 32 to install Adobe Reader. I used the dnf upgrade command. After:

sudo dnf install snapd

dnf install snapd

ln -s /var/lib/snapd/snap /snap

snap install acrordrdc

I restarted and during the process the PC crashed for hours. I turned off the PC. When I turned it on, it does not start (https://imgur.com/EhefJce).

I think the system has updated and the nvidea GPU driver is not recognized.

Alt+ctrl+ F2,F3... goes to black screen. The result is the same for other kernels.

How do I proceed with figuring out what the problem is?

Setup: FX 8350, GTX 1060, MOBA 970a-ud3.

Odds are high this is the problem. Did you uninstall proprietary NVidia drivers before upgrading? What upgrade method did you use?

First step: boot by appending space & 3 & space & plymouth=0 to the end of the linu line after striking the E key at the Grub menu. That should boot you into multi-user mode, everything working except X. From there you can troubleshoot, uninstall NVidia proprietary drivers, then reinstall them if you find you actually need them. None of my NVidia cards need non-FOSS software of any kind.

On Fedora, I have had better luck with nvidia drivers from rpmfusion: https://rpmfusion.org/Howto/NVIDIA
Again, as mrmazda pointed out, if it is needed.
