Boot stuck at “started daily apt upgrade and clean activities” (18.10)
I have Ubuntu 18.10, and the boot has been stuck there for over half an hour.
I’ve had no problems lately but:
in the last 2 days I got messages saying that sources could not be updated because there was “no connection” (but I was happily surfing the web)
yesterday I also got multiple “internal error” messages
Unfortunately I was focused on a specific activity and didn't pay much attention to messages
Any ideas?
Thank you!!

Thank you! One correction: it’s 18.10 I’m running. Also in my case the boot is completely blocked. After a while I decided to stop it and try anew: as I hit the power button I saw the boot log resuming, than quickly ubuntu’s loading screen, then it was off. I tried turning it on again and it was the same, except I saw no log at all, just black screen and blinking cursor, until I hit the off button.
