upgrade failure
Asked by
Richard Idiens
Update manager offered me an upgrade from version 9 to version 10 on a Dell Studio. I accepted, after much downloading, the installation started and found many files missing. It eventually failed and left the computer in a non-bootable condition (Grub ends with kernel panic.) How can I recover the situation?
It looks like I need to download an re-install the new OS. I would want to save my own files but am not sure in which directories they are all saved (particularly those of Evolution). Also the Grub I'm using is 0.97 and I would like to move up to 2+. Is there an easy and automatic way to do this?
Thanks in advance
