A bit more diagnostic information would be helpful.
A screenshot would help - If taking a photo would make things easier for you, please do, and upload it somewhere we can see.
Other than that, at least it seems like you got through kernel initialization and part of init....

Oooh... that's annoying.
As I boot up my laptop this morning it reminded me of quite possibly where you were getting stuck... this looks like gdm is trying to start up. ... and probably failing?
Did the screen flicker at this point sort of? Can you ctrl-alt-f1 to a login prompt?
If you can get a login, see if /var/log/Xorg.0.log or run "journalctl -e" and see if there's anything interesting that looks like it was stuck. Check if /etc/passwd who is userid 114 and see if it's gdm.
If you can't get to a login, with a recovery CD and also verify your /etc/passwd who is userid 114... then check to see if you got a /var/log/Xorg.0.log in that disk to see if X11 started.
(At one point I think I may have been getting stuck sort of at a similar point, and it was due to crng initialization but it looks like you got past this. I had to vigorously shake my mouse to get past it.)

Which things are working, were you able to ctrl-alt-f1?
Definitely check your Xorg.0.log file and/or journalctl to see if your X server failed to start.
