I had installed 11.04 and whilst it was working I had trouble with a usb stick drive. I could not copy to it or easily delete files. I thought my system was corrupted.
I decided I had better do a reinstall. On starting normally it did not load. Loading via safe mode the result appears awful. What should I do.
Modprobe:FATAL: could not load /lib/modules/2.6.38-9 generic-pae/modules.dep: no such file or directory.
Mount: unknown filesystem type 'reiserfs'
Mountall: mount /media/g [860] terminated with status 32
filesystem could not be mounted /media/g
INIT: unreadahead-other main process (886) terminated status 4
My home directory is on a separate partition.
Is it possible to get my original installed programs using the live cd, using dpkg --get-selections > installed-software
I am guessing I will have to do a clean install. But before that what should I do?
