Debian infinite initialization

  • 772

I have a laptop with Debian 9 (stretch) and everything started because initially I had a problem, I didn't have wifi, so I decided to install some things (which didn't work):

apt install firmware-realtek
apt-get install firmware-linux-nonfree
apt install firmware-netxen
apt-get update

Then I installed steam, and the games did not open so I tried to fix it:

apt install libgtk2.0-0:i386

Later I restarted it and I find that when I turn it on it stays like this and never finishes initializing:

When I put apt-get updatein the recovery mode it returns me this and it does not solve it:

W: Fallo al obtener http://deb.debian.org/debian/dists/stretch/InRelease No se pudo resolver <<deb.debian.org>>
W: Fallo al obtener http://security.debian.org/dists/stretch/updates/InRelease No se pudo resolver <<security.debian.org>>
W: Fallo al obtener http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/dists/stretch-proposed-updates/InRelease No se pudo resolver <<ftp.us.debian.org>>

I would like it to reopen debian normally.

Update 1: Now when I turn on the computer with Debian in a normal way, this screen is displayed and it never finishes initializing:

When starting debian

I searched here , but I don't understand much.

Update 2: I found this and now the pc shows it gets stuck on this: debian

linux

    I found the solution here . I just had to put the following lines of code in "Recovery Mode":

     mount -o rw,remount /
 apt-get purge nvidia-*
 reboot

    But I don't really know why it works.
