After installing 15.10 from 14.04 I am locked out
Asked by
Ricardo Diamondo
Last night I decided to upgrade from 14.04 to 15.10, I was told this could take an hour. After 2 hours I went to bed as it was still running. This morning I cannot log-in as I just get a black screen with Username & Password requests. Have tried all the passwords that I know for Ubuntu (I wrote them down) but still cannot log-in. Help! I wiped Windows years ago so Linux is my only system now. I am currently booting from an old 12.04.4 CD but have lots of information that I want to retrieve from my old 14.04. Is this an Administrator problem? Can I change that and still recover my information? Please help, I need so many things that I did not back-up, as I did not think that upgrading would lock me out.
