Bug Description
(Linux mint 18 / Xenial)
after booting in recovery mode from grub.
If you just wait 30-60seconds, a new stream of messages appear and something gets messed up, you can't use recovery mode any more, you have to do a hard reboot.
You don't need to do something in particular for this to happen, simply some time out occurs.
-------------------
more precisely, one of the messages say(copied manually):
"[FAILED] Failed to start Console System on Startup logging.
see 'systemctl status console-
It seams, it tries to launch a second recovery mode on top of the previous one after the error.
-------
I confirm, this is happening on both my PC linux mint 18 64bits, laptop linux mint 18 32bits and some one else from a forum on a ThinkPad X201 with Mint 18 KDE 64-bit.
On my systems, both are fully up to date, 32 and 64 bit. Kernels don't seam to change anything.
systemd version 229-4ubuntu11
