[X] upgrade interrupted and unable to boot: general error mounting filesystems
System froze in mid-upgrade from 10.04 to 10.10 and now fails to boot, giving a 'general error mounting filesystems' message when loading. However, the boot menu remains accessible with the F8 key and is functional.
While in the 10.10 Live CD, using the chroot method in the grub2 help proved unsuccessful: https:/
The system is 10.04 64-bit running an nvidia card and sporadically froze with increasing frequency. No resolution to the freezing could be found online, which seemed associated with any of nvidia, usb, flash or even firefox.
Can someone suggest an alternative to restore to bootable condition and resume upgrade without having to reinstall and wipe the drive?
