I have just run the upgrade from 14.04 to 16.04 - there were several System Program failures and at the end a screen showed that the upgrade had failed. However the system is indeed 16.04.1 LTS even though several packages were missing (Gparted, Pulse Audio, etc)
But at the first attempt to boot up the system I enter my password and nothing happens - simply the "Logging in ..." mention.
How can I break into a terminal from this screen? Or force the system into some sort of life. All the alternative boot entries are 16.04.1 so I can't go back to 14.04.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
