Hello, and thanks in advance for any help.
I've been running 9.10 for two years now, and just upgraded to 10.04 today. This turned out to be a big mistake, because now my system freezes on the login screen after issuing several error messages. Here are the errors that appear (transcribed, not copied and pasted).
mount: mounting none on /dev failed: No such device
usb_id[232]: unable to access '/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d7/usb2/2-5'
chroot: cannot execute /etc/apparmor/initramfs: No such file or directory
init: ureadahead main process (248) terminated with status 5
Then the ubuntu logo appears, along with another error message (which I saw the first few times I rebooted, but can't see anymore), and then it freezes at the login screen.
This happened a few times, but now it doesn't even get to the login screen--it's stuck on "your disk drives are being checked for errors, this may take some time."
I realize that some of these error messages have been addressed already in other threads, but the problems don't seem to be the same as mine (i.e., many other people seem to get the "mount: mounting none on /dev failed: No such device" message, but their systems boot up just fine).
I'm not an absolute beginner. I know how to navigate the file system and edit files, but not much else. I have no idea which of these errors is/are causing my problem. Any help would be much appreciated.
