upgrade from 10.04 aborted
Spent most of yesterday on upgrade from 10.04 to 12.04, on Acer Aspire One A110AB (Intel Atom processor 1.6GHz, 16gb ssd, 1gb RAM). Had about 2.3gb of free space to begin but cleared more on prompts during upgrade. Also got numerous illegible dialogue boxes of squares-
For the last ten hours the process has been frozen In stage 'Installing the Upgrades', with just 27min left, and the last progress item reading 'Installed mousetweeks'. The last few lines on the terminal read:
Setting up modemmanager (ubuntu 0.5.2.0-0ubuntu2) ...
Installing new version of config file /etc/dBus-
initctl: Method "Get" with signature "ss" on interface "org.freedeskto
initctl:
Aborted
At the moment the system appears to be more or less working -- I'm sending this through Chromium on it and I can look for files and edit documents in LibreOffice. 'Help and Support' doesn't open anything. My space is at 1.2gb.
I'm not Linux-technical especially but can follow instruction on the terminal.
Help, please?
Thanks!
