Installed new RAM. Won't boot past grub
by Duglas from LinuxQuestions.org on (#4PVD1)
My Lenovo thinkpad had 4Gb of ram in 2 sticks.
I purchased 2 sticks of 4Gb to make 8GB.
Now my laptop won't boot past Grub. I selected "recovery mode" and that also failed.
Entered the BIOS setup and that shows 8Gb of ram installed.
The OS is Debian 10, not running Gnome or KDE instead running Openbox, and has been running for about 2 weeks.
I reinstalled the original ram, and now laptop is running, just like it was.
