Sync before update and after update.
3 sync in all so I don't remember what was the 3rd one.

But yes, it's quite messy all of this !

And like you mentioned, we don't even know if it's a Debian or what type.

When I read something like this...

*I get really confused...*

And when you post

In all of Gunnar's posts, I think I have only seen one report of actual
output posted, and I have no idea what the origin of that was, viz:

  # UNCONFIGURED FSTAB FOR BASE SYSTEM
  overlay / overlay rw 0 0
  tmpfs /tmp tmpfs nosuid,nodev 0 0
  /dev/sda1 /mnt/sda1 EXT2 nosuid,nodev,nofail,x-gvfs-show 0 0
  /dev/sda3 /mnt/sda3 EXT2
nosuid,nodev,nofail,x-gvfs-show,noauto,x-udisks-auth 0 0
  /dev/sda2 none swap sw,x-udisks-auth,noauto 0 0

*It doesn't help much ! And you ain't to blame...*
