This is a pretty vague description.

Does it boot into the multi-user.target, i.e. the non-graphical login prompt?  Are you prompted for a username and password at a login prompt, or just root’s password?  It sounds to me like you’re stuck at the emergency rescue shell and not a fully booted system.
