Hello,
I am not a Linux master, but I know enough to get by, so it could be a simple fix and I just don't know.
During the do-release-upgrade process from 11.11 Server to 12.04 I had an error. I can not tell you the exact error, but it was very similar, if not the same as this error:
@Theserver:~$ sudo apt-get upgrade

Do you want to continue [Y/n]?
