That is the url to which you should refer, which links to this article:


If your Mac doesn't start up all the way

It shows the several different Icons you can get, including flashing question mark.


Flashing question mark means, "Could not find a bootable Volume at the location last specified as 'Startup Disk'."

Step 1 is to use Disk Utility and attempt to repair that Volume from Recovery mode.
