  • Seems like you got 4.6 from Yakkety... if it didn't update to 4.6 by running sudo apt dist-upgrade, then Trusty doesn't support 4.6. Commented Oct 21, 2016 at 0:36
  • Try using a newer version of that kernel. I've only rarely encountered problems with the mainline kernel from that page, but I vaguely remember being unable to boot with a 4.x.0 kernel (which could well have been 4.6.0). Upgrading to 4.x.2 resolved the boot problem (and was easy since I could just switch to a different kernel from the GRUB boot menu). Commented Oct 21, 2016 at 1:51
