I was just about finished upgrading to Hardy (I was actually rubbing my hands together) when I suffered some kind of power failure and the install hasn't worked. Is there anything I can do other than burn a disk and start from scratch? My data is ok - it is on a different partition. I've already tried a failsafe start but it dumped me back out. Seems it can't see my data partition. I don't know enough Linux to use the terminal myself.

sudo dpkg --configure -a
Copy and paste the command in the Terminal. Copy and paste the output here.
