install over old ubuntu without formatting
I had a power failure during an in-place upgrade to 10.4 Now it boots to several choices of kernel and troubleshooting options.
I ran fsck and it found errors, but it still won't boot.
When I boot from a live cd and check with the file browser, my entire file structure is present.
Of course my backups are current...not.
What I would like to do is repair the installation, but the only options I seem to find all involve wiping the disk.
I apologize for my ignorance. I'm sure this question has been answered many times. I did search the forums and this site.
I am not a total idiot. I have 10.4 installed in a VBox virtual under Win VII. I use it as a server while developing web pages. Doing it that way saves me all the hassle of FTPing to the target.
btw - did you know that IIS supports PHP? Well, sorta. It wraps it up in a cgi-bin shell. Just what I need; another layer of something to configure.
Thanks!
