I ran out of room for the Root (default from 10+ years ago). I tried using SUDO apt-get clean to free up some space but it was not enough to run 20.04 LTS. I used GParted to move some partitions around and enlarge the Root partition. Rebooted and everything worked like normal. (Note: I have been getting 20-25 ACPI error AE_NOT_FOUND errors on booting for some time now after running sudo apt-get clean and deleting files in the /tmp folder about a year ago but everything ran fine even with the error messages.) After 2 weeks of 20.04 LTS running well, I upgraded to 22.04 LTS. Install seemed to go well and system booted. Message displayed saying Firefox was now handled by SNAP. When I tried to open Firefox, LIbra Office, and several other apps, the spinning icon appears for about 20-30 seconds then everything disappears with nothing opening. I tried rebooting and noticed the message FAILED: Service for SNAP application CUPS.CUPSD not started. I also get what appears to be the same ACPI errors as before. I have tried running the SUDO apt-get commands: update / upgrade / dist-upgrade / -f install with no success. Also running in rescue mode does not allow the apps to work. Currently running using a boot disk of 22.04 LTS and Firefox works. How do I repair the install? Note: I did make a full backup of the Ubuntu partitions prior to moving/enlarging the partitions.
Post some information on your drive using commands such as: sudo parted -l to show drives/partitions and df -h to show disk space used on mounted partitions. Having a / (root) filesystem filled is often caused by large log files so you can go into the /var/log directory and check sizes of files and delete them if they are large and numerous. Also post some information on your hardware (drive size, RAM and CPU) and the approximate age.

I put the system together in 2012. Several hard drive and power supplies upgrades. sda is Win-10 with sdb2 as Win-10 files and applications partation. 22.04 LTS is on sdb1, 3 and 4. Other references to 20.04 LTS are either a backup or a different flavor I tried. ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo parted -l Model: ATA SanDisk SDSSDA12 (scsi) Disk /dev/sda: 120GB Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B Partition Table: msdos Disk Flags: Number Start End Size Type File system Flags 1 1049kB 120GB 120GB primary ntfs boot Model: ATA WDC WD20EZAZ-00G (scsi) Disk /dev/sdb: 2000GB Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/4096B Partition Table: msdos Disk Flags: Number Start End Size Type File system Flags 1 2097kB 455GB 455GB primary ext4 4 455GB 1416GB 961GB primary ext4 3 1416GB 1469GB 53.1GB primary ext4 2 1469GB 2000GB 531GB primary ntfs Model: ATA ST1000DM003-1ER1 (scsi) Disk /dev/sdc: 1000GB Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/4096B Partition Table: msdos Disk Flags: Number Start End Size Type File system Flags 1 1049kB 1000GB 1000GB primary ntfs boot Model: ATA ST500DM002-1BD14 (scsi) Disk /dev/sdd: 500GB Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/4096B Partition Table: msdos Disk Flags: Number Start End Size Type File system Flags 1 1049kB 368MB 367MB primary ntfs boot 2 368MB 314GB 314GB primary ntfs 3 315GB 500GB 186GB extended 5 315GB 379GB 64.4GB logical ext4 6 379GB 443GB 64.4GB logical ext4 7 443GB 499GB 55.6GB logical ext4 Model: Micron CT1000X6SSD9 (scsi) Disk /dev/sde: 1000GB Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B Partition Table: gpt Disk Flags: Number Start End Size File system Name Flags 1 17.4kB 134MB 134MB Microsoft reserved partition msftres 2 135MB 1000GB 1000GB Basic data partition msftdata Warning: Unable to open /dev/sr0 read-write (Read-only file system). /dev/sr0 has been opened read-only.

Thank you for taking time to look into my problem.
Please disregard, issue now resolved. I disconnected all extra drives but the Ubuntu drive i was upgrading,, reinstalled 22.04 LTS and everything works. Only thing lost was bookmarks and saved information in Firefox.
