Help me, please! - CDROM and archive canonical
#21
After I carried out your first part of your instruction:

Please open a terminal by pressing 'Ctrl' 'Alt' and 'T' together

In the terminal window type or paste in this command
Code:

Code:
sudo dpkg --configure -a
followed by return/enter. When asked for your password, type it in followed by return/enter.

Result: The output below appeared in a purple box that completely obscured the terminal.

Package configuration

I wasn’t able to execute the second and third parts of your command because the terminal was completely obscured by a purple box displaying the text above. I had to close that terminal and open a new one in order to proceed with the remaining instructions.

Then

Code:
Code:
sudo apt-get update

                                                                             
Then

Code:
Code:
sudo apt-get upgrade
Results from the second and third parts of your instructions:

E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.

Retry the commands in the same order.

If you get the purple box again you need to accept what it is trying to do.
The 'OK' choice is probably already highlighted as it is the only choice, if so just press Enter.

I'm new to Linux—especially when it comes to coding and the command line. I've been a long-time Windows user, where things are generally more straightforward. Linux, on the other hand, is definitely a whole different kettle of fish! So please bear with me as I navigate the learning curve and forgive any inexperience on my part.
