Problem: Ubuntu running on Hyper-V doesn't appear to finish booting

In my case I got this cryptic message: 

/dev/sda1: clean, w/x files, y/z blocks

And there it sits - doing nothing. To fix it do the following:

  1. Ctrl+Alt+F2 -> Hey, there is a login prompt here!

  2. Login
  3. sudo apt-get purge nvidia*
    1. Why? Not sure, but this has been the cause often
  4. sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall
    1. Yes, you do need an internet connection for this.
  5. reboot

    1. before rebooting, I actually went through the apt update && apt upgrade process.
