I just completed an on-line upgrade from 10.04 to 10.10.
Everything went according to plan and the upgrade seemed to go without a hitch. However, when I rebooted following the finish of the process, the system would not start. After a short spell of disk activity, everything stopped and I was left staring at a blank screen - not even a blinking cursor in sight.
Fortunately, I had kept my original installation on a separate partition and this boots OK from the GRUB menu.
Has anyone else experienced this problem and does anyone know how I can sort it out?
