I've installed Ubuntu 18.04 (single boot) on a trusty old Dell Latitude E6400 it works very well, but I have a question: before the Ubuntu Splash screen, right after BIOS boot, a purple screen starts and stays for several (about 20) seconds (as if it was a screen to choose what OS to boot, but this is blank purple), and then the splash screen appears and quickly the login screen and I type the password and a purple screen again which hangs for two or three seconds and then I use the system normally (at least so I think, because my use is very light, really); it's all that normal? (Because I remember I had Ubuntu 16.04 dual boot with MSW7 on a desktop with a basic similar configuration to the Dell laptop and after choosing Ubuntu would go to splash, quickly booting). Thanks.
