Hello Everyone,
I had installed Ubuntu 12.04(32 bit) via Wubi under Windows XP on /dev/sda1 partition, but due to a failed upgrade attempt the ubuntu gets stuck at the Ubuntu logo screen with dots filling. Unfortunately, I don't have a always "ON" internet connection(Connection Type - Wifi), so I'm unable to upgrade to 14.04.1 although I do have a Ubuntu 14.04.1(32 bit) .Iso image which I have downloaded from Alternate Downloads link available on Ubuntu website via torrent. I can login into my Ubuntu account by pressing Ctrl+Alt+f2 at the stuck screen (i.e. Ubuntu logo screen with dots filling). I'm also able to login into windows without any issue.
I have made a Live USB pendrive with the 14.04.1(32 bit) .Iso file and can mount the contents of the wubi Ubuntu install using the commnands mentioned in the thread below but unable to cut/copy the contents on the desktop to another partition due to permission restrictions :-

So, Please guide me as to how to be able to either do an upgrade to the latest LTS distro's or atleast be able to login into the graphics mode. If you require any other information, just ask for it.
Regards,
Joojo.

I have uninstalled Wubi i.e. Ubuntu (after having copied all the contents of the desktop using Kali linux) and then have re-installed Ubuntu. So, this thread can be deleted or elseif guide me how to do it myself.
