Success! Thank you very much Matt and cd2002.!
Through your help, i have managed to overcome the issue, and have now completed the standalone install. Brilliant!
I tried to disconnect and reconnect the keyboard, but there was no change. I also tried to log in to terminal via your suggestions to go via chrome os, but again, no response.
It seems the issue was related to the mouse and keyboard not being recognised.
I went to the store and purchased a cheap usb keyboard and mouse in a last desperate attempt.
I plugged them in and bingo!!! Ctrl Alt + f2 worked and the terminal opened!
It is strange how the first time i managed to get to the terminal but after that, nothing.
Your help was invaluable in keeping me sane and sticking to this project- Thanks again.
