Hello,
my upgrade failed due to lack of space on disk on the /boot partition. Ok, my fault, but why didn't the installer check for space before upgrading?
Anyway, my system is now unusable, i.e. X starts (I can see the mouse pointer, but no Gnome login screen on it), and I cannot even reach the classic text boot log I used to have with fedora, and gentoo. How can I furher investigate the problem without reinstalling from scratch? I already have reinstalled all the packages by hand at the text promp, but this didn't help.
Thanks
Marco
