I've downloaded Trisquel 9 from http://jenkins.trisquel.info/makeiso-etiona/iso/.

I downloaded the first iso file:
triskel_9.0_amd64.iso 2.2G

After installing I try to bootup and nothing happens. I just get a blinking cursor.

Any ideas what is going on?

If that is only a bootloader issue, then you just need to reinstall
GRUB bootloader from Triskel LiveCD you already have.

And here are (too) detailed instructions to do so: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/Installing#via_ChRoot

Hello,

I have the same problem. I boot from a usb live stick. Maybe a kernel panic? What can I do?

First, check the ISO for errors (md5, sha256) to eliminate corrupt install media.

For reinstalling GRUB bootloader, there is my favorite article from
HTG here https://www.howtogeek.com/114884/how-to-repair-grub2-when-ubuntu-wont-boot.
Simply follow the command line section there so you do not need to
install anything. I always give this to everybody asking about their
bootloader needs to be repaired.

The one lcerf pointed out above is great (thank you!) but the HTG's is
far more simpler.
