upgraded to 12.04 and it refuses to load in the newer versions, but in the oldest version, it boots and operates properly (so far as i can tell).
once i''m done here, i'll reboot and check the versions that don'e work and the one that does.
i am now trying to upgrade and this is what happened:
me@me:~$ sudo apt-get upgrade

E: Unable to fetch some archives, maybe run apt-get update or try with --fix-missing?
are these related and how does one even start fixing this? im a bit of a linux noob and having only limited abilities, its impossible for me to go at this alone. thanks!
