I'm updating the netbook version of 10.04 to 10.10. It is apparently asking for user input regarding Grub. However I cannot move the windows around to click 'ok' nor will the keyboard function. No Alt+Tab, The terminal in the background will not get focus so I can't type in there, I can't get that little window 'Configu..' to get focus so I could just hit enter.
I can however click on all the icons on the left side of the title menu bar. But only those. So I could logout if needed, but what would that do in the middle of an upgrade?
It is honestly stuck, and I have little hope that I still have a usable system and will have to install from scratch.
And I'm really fearful that grub is toast. And I'll first have to remove grub with a windows bootcd (it's a dual boot system). Which is hard since it's a netbook without a cd (will have to use a boot usb drive somehow)
Is there any possible way to get that 'configu...'window to the foreground so I can click it?
