You are booting your system into a non-GUI environment and then trying to start

how well that would work with xfce.

Well I was just ready to try anything and all I got was screens full of
messages, maybe I should have waited longer?
Anyway, running on the F28 Live flash drive and running e2fsck as Stan
suggested, must have done something since after shutting that down it
booted normally into F28 from the hard drive and I was able to update
the system, 4.18.5.200 now. I usually update every morning and the other
kernels would have been whatever came with the most recent updates.
Thisis the end of my day, I'll shut down now and hope everything boots
again in the morning. As I said this F27 computer and the NFS ans SAMBA
servers all came back on with a button push on each one in the required
order. They were all shut down without care just touch of the power
button, only the F28 computer failed.
Thanks to all for your help,
Bob
