Can't reach login screen after accidental power loss during an upgrade [duplicate]
During the upgrade, my computer shut down.
After starting it I see a black screen with [OK] sentences with finished tasks after them.
The last one is:
[OK] Started GNOME display Manager.
Dispatcher Service...ed database.s.pp link was shut down...
Do I need to format my computer?
If not, what else can I do?
You could try the recovery mode.
Then I'd try to restart the upgrade process with
do-release-upgrade
If that doesn't work, try the following:
apt-get install -f
dpkg --configure -a
