It looks like the issue is likely related to display resolution settings if you can see the initial boot text but get a black screen with "no signal" once the GUI loads.

Try the following steps:

Switch to a TTY session
If the system is running but the display is not working, press Ctrl + Alt + F1 (or F2, F3, etc.) to access a terminal.

Check the current display settings
If you can log in via SSH or TTY, try running:

"xrandr"

This will list the available resolutions. If the default resolution is not supported by your LCD panel, you may need to adjust it manually.
