He all,
The problem: I have been upgrading from gutsy to hardy. things went on fine and while updating all the packages (almost 1029 in number and 6 hours to download) had been downloaded. When the installation was 10% through, we had a power outage. there afterwards after the system rebooted, after the login process i get a blank screen only the desktop wall paper is seen. No menus, no toolbars no nothing! What to to. I am not on a dual boot option. I am on a dedicated system running ubuntu. Please help.
Thanks in advance

Try to boot recovery mode and run


dpkg --configure -a
