I've managed to completely screw up my Ubuntu 9.10 installation. I have been running 9.04 for some time and everything was fine. I then upgraded to 9.10 today using the updater and it worked ok except that my wireless network (Atheros ar2413) no longer worked. So I shutdown my computer and pulled it out and restarted it. No problem. I then reinstalled the card and that is where it all went pair-shaped.
On boot-up x windows does not start. Instead I get the error message: "Mount of filesystem failed. A maintenance shell will now be started". In this text window I can log in, navigate around the filesystem and everything is there. I tried a startx but it was unsuccessful. I get "Read-only file system" type errors.
Does anyone know how I can repair this?
