You crashed a kernel. What kind of updates?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux_Term...er_Project
hold down the left shift key while booting to get a grub menu. select advanced options and boot an older kernel.

If your grub menu opens with the left shift key look under advanced options for an older kernel entry something older than 4.40-85 Generic. Do not use recovery mode otherwise kexec will continue to load the saved dump kernel (which in this case is probably a thin version 4.40-85) Boot from the line that reads something like Linux Lite... 4.40- (with the lowest number below 85) Generic. Hopefully you have a few older kernels listed there. If not there is little I can help you with, as you've probably followed the Ubuntu caution not to root password your system. In the future you should not remove old kernels before thoroughly testing the newly installed ones. If you get your system back up on an older kernel make sure you have not added any ppas that are not from Linux Lite, and then go through the update process again.

After i play some, with some programs,i re-install to day again the 3.4 with 4.4.0.70 kernel BUT when i update i got no 4.4.0.85 got 4.4.0.86
