Ubuntu 9.04 - 9.10 -> Upgrade SOS

[skarlekar]

I was upgrading my 9.04 parition to 9.10 on a 64-bit machine. Half-way through my machine froze. I forced an hard reboot and now it is not coming up. It is saying that it is waiting on an UUID - apparently the id for my partition. Any thoughts on how I can get around this? Anybody?

This basically solved the issue for me:

Replace your nonworking initrd file with a previous version. For you Andre all you need to do is (just in case you are new)

cd /boot
sudo mv initrd.img-2.6.31-14-generic backup
sudo cp initrd.img-2.6.28-16-generic initrd.img-2.6.31-14-generic
