Dual boot system

I have a duel boot system Zorin 15.1 on one drive and Ubuntu 16.04 on another drive. When I boot up the computer I get a Grub menu with both Zorin and Ubuntu. Zorin boots up fast and works great. When I boot up Ubuntu I get this:

/dev/sda1: recovering journal
/dev/sdal: clean, 784691/6406144 files, 15396563/25599999 blocks
Welcome to emergency mode! After logging in, type “journalctl -xb” to view
system logs, “systemctl reboot” to reboot, “systemctl default” or ^D to
try again to boot into default mode.
Press enter for maintenance
(or press Control-D to continue):
root@Dennis1:~#

If I click Control-D, it tries to boot Ubuntu. Then I end up in the same place, see above.

If I type: journalctl -xb, I get thousands of pages of info that I do not know what to do with. I do not know how copy it to show you this info.

If I go back to the grub menu, and click on Advanced Ubuntu 16.04, I end up in the same place.

Any suggestions?

Thank You
