1. Boot LiveCD
2. create /media/newroot/ and mount / on HD to it (in my case/dev/sda5)
Code:
mkdir /media/newroot/
mount /dev/sda5 /media/newroot/
3. chroot to /media/newroot/
Code:
chroot /media/newroot/
4. update and dist-upgrade
Code:
apt-get update
apt-get dist-upgrade
I tried doing this, and I am still struggling with things over here. If you are rather new to Linux (like me), then I might suggest copy-pasting the code in to your terminal by CTRL C and then right-click-pasting in to your terminal. I could never get the
Code:
sudo chroot /media/newroot/
to work and got the following message:
Code:
root@ubuntu:/home/ubuntu# chroot /media/newroot/
chroot: cannot run command `/bin/bash': No such file or directory
I tried proceeding with the updates only to find the same error once again when booting up.
Grrr. Maybe that's a little too much of an understatement to describe my frustration at Linux right now. Why would you release a buggy kernel update??
