help with upgrade from woody to sarge...
Hi,
I have upgraded from woody to sarge and after a very long list of
packages being installed, my system is a mess:
Right after the upgrade, I launched X and kdm (I had kdm and kde
working fine prior to the upgrade) and at log in, it tried to launch
gnome, and it could not create a desktop. I managed to log out. Then
I restarted the system and found that it could not boot again. The
computer is stuck at lilo (it only prints out the first two letters:
"LI") and then it hungs.
I don't have any important stuff on it so I can re-format the HD and
do a clean install. However, if there's something else I can do that
would not take all that time, I would like to try it.
But first, what can I do to make it bootable again? or at least boot
from a cd?
Thanks,
