I tried the F1 or F2 combinations, but not F3 (which I did 
not know)

nothing particular, the same outcome in similar time, no 
"failsafe" graphics mode is avail

just SysVInit vs SystemD modes are available, I tried both 
and none solved the issue

do you mean manually ? If so, I forgot this step

dunno, how should I know in a BLIND mode ? in grub menu it 
does not show up.

I am quite a lot suspicious of graphics since even in 
Virtual Box MX copies of patito feo, some update broke the 
screen too.


what could I do with "external" tools like a LIFE distro ?

for example, how to try to switch Intel <=> Nouveau driver ?
I dunno which one was installed befor the distro-upgrade, 
but if I was able to work from the outside I'd try "the other".
