updated from 9.04 to 9.10 and now cannot boot OS.
I updated my Dell inspiron from 9.04 to 9.10 using the Upgrade Manager. After it was all installed, I re-started, as instructed. It started to boot, got to the Ubuntu symbol, then gave me the following message:
init: sreadahead main process (2089) terminated withstatus 1
mountall:
mountall: rootfilesystem is not mounted
init: mountall mainprocess (2079) terminated with status 1
General error mounting filesystems.
A maintenance shell will now be started.
CONTROL-D will terminated this shell and re-try.
root@dell-
I tried several times and got the same message each time. Control-D did nothing and I can't enter any commands. I do have a live 9.10 CD. How do I use it to repair the operating system? I have no idea what commands to use or anything, so give me easy to understand instructions.
