I attempted to upgrade Ubuntu 14 to 16 LTS using sudo do-release-upgrade and everything is broken. The installation is not completed. The logs say it was aborted. When I use apt or apt-get the following output is shown (see below). It seems installation of some packages have left incomplete. All attempts failed.
I managed to chroot into an Ubuntu 16 from CDROM (in fact from HDD) and fixed a few things. But I cannot install the new kernel. (from How to restore a system after accidentally removing all kernels?)
Various things I tried:
- sudo dpkg --configure t
- apt-get -f install
- dpkg -l | grep -v '^ii'|cut -c5-64 >list-of-packages.txt
- dpkg --configure $(
- sudo dpkg --configure -a
- Replaced sources.list with the original file.
- sudo apt-get install --fix-broken
- sudo do-release-upgrade # No new release found.
- ...
