What you're seeing is a file-system check report; which is the result of power outage, or a user performing an unclean shutdown (such as holding down a power button, or pulling the power cord) which leaves the file-system in an unknown state, the fsck or file-system check ensures the file-system is safe (ie. this detail is informational, and not related to any problem you have, usually the result of user behavior). You've not provided any OS/release details; but key is what was done in the session before the messages you're seeing first happened; did you make a change?

Please give a bit more information. What kind of machine is this? Which Ubuntu version? Did it ever work?

@Tilman An Acer Chromebook, unsure of the version, still trying to figure it out.

@guiverc The link did not help, I still don't understand whats happening, I'll try the trouble shooting and update.

You've not told us what you're using, ie. are you using Ubuntu Core 22?, Ubuntu Desktop 23.10, Ubuntu Server 22.04 LTS, or another OS... ie. specifics as to what you're running on your device. If you forced power off by holding power key or something like that - what you're seeing is a result of that, and unrelated to your actual issue. You can cleanly shutdown systems using keyboard commands (SysRq keys etc) but you've not said what you're actually running yet, so we're somewhat limited in what we can suggest.

@giuverc I updated my question to try to help. I did Alt + F2 and it says 22.04.2 LTS, I'm sure this is the version of Ubuntu.

Yes, Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS tells us you're using the Ubuntu 22.04 LTS system (and .2 reflects upgrades you've applied; ie. you're behind on applying security fixes, as it should read .3 if you'd applied fixes since August 2023 but 22.04 is helpful. Also if a DESKTOP or SERVER system is helpful; ie. server means its text only; desktop means you have graphical interface...

@guiverc Do I put the password in the type space?

ubuntu-Cyan is likely the $HOSTNAME the machine was given at installation; you provide your username & hit enter, then you'll be asked for password which you provide (again with enter) to login to the text terminal. I don't know what you mean by "in the type space" sorry.

@guiverc okay thank you, I will try this and update.

@guiverc I put in the username and password and it has some welcome stuff, non-functional links, and a command box. what do do now? using xdg-open --help doesnt help :'|

It is unclear what you are asking. You seem to have repeatedly changed the meaning of the question

@OrganicMarble I'm asking what the code means and what to do. So far all of the solutions have just led me to more code. At this point I'll celebrate if I get to see anything other than black background with white text.

That's two questions. The first one has been answered: that "code" (we call it a message) means that the boot sequence has successfully passed the step where the filesystems are checked for errors. Answering the second one (what to do) involves diagnosing your system to find out why it doesn't proceed after that step, Such diagnosis cannot be done from distance without a minimum of competent support at the system. You need to get someone in place who at least knows what a command line is.

If your system is Ubuntu 22.04 LTS Server, after entering your username & password, you'll get what you describe, ie. welcome & a terminal prompt. This is the expected outcome for Ubuntu 22.04 LTS Server; in that it's a command prompt (CLI or command line interface). Ubuntu 22.04 LTS Desktop has that too, but also a GUI or graphical user interface; but you didn't specify which Ubuntu 22.04 LTS product; are you expecting a GUI and thus this was a desktop install? You're behind on applying security upgrades for a few months, so has this existed for months? or something was done that broke it?

What was done in the last session where it worked; as if something broke it, that is the session where the damage was done (usually problems don't show until reboot or the next boot). The more details we have, the better help we can provide. A terminal (text interface) will let you explore & correct any issues, alas yes it does require you to have some generic computer/POSIX skills (even if you're not that familiar with Ubuntu, it's still just an OS where not much has changed since the 1970s with computer at command prompt; we just have nicer GUIs with more colors)

@Tilman that was kind of rude of you, i know enough basic coding to kind of tell whats going on but I've never used ubuntu. If you can't be helpful please do not comment.

@guiverc it was incorrectly shut down, AFAIK. There's nothing on the computer that didn't already come with it
