My upgrade seemed to go fine until the reboot portion. Then I encountered an error that prevented me from getting to the splash screen. A live version of 16.04 worked, but 18.04 live would not. I discovered that the issue was the result of an outdated version of my HP bios. I have updated my bios and the boot now gets to the splash screen and hangs. Booting into recovery works now and live booting 18.04 works. When I boot verbose I see that the error now is
modulenotfounderror no module named 'distupgrade'. I have my /home and /usr setup on individual partitions and am trying to back them up in a live version of 18.04, but I can not get it to recognize my usb drive.
I don't particularly want to re-install and certainly not if I can't back up my /home and /usr before the attempt. Any help is greatly appreciated.
