I tried upgrading from Intrepid to Jaunty last night. I started the upgrade from the update manager and left it to do its thing (no use watching your computer download files for hours, right?). When I returned, the upgrade window was nowhere to be seen, and the desktop was frozen.
I rebooted, and got as far as the login screen. I had no mouse movement, though the keyboard worked. Logging in was unsuccessful (no reaction after entering password). I rebooted in recovery mode and tried running dpkg (didn't help) and apt-get update && apt-get upgrade (doesn't work; can't resolve any of the servers).
Can anyone help me figure out what's gone wrong and how to fix it? I've had to boot into Vista to post this, and I don't know how much more Windows I can take. ;)
