Carfield Yim,

I wasn't able to fix the issue directly from updates. However if you want to boot into something you can edit the boot parameters in grub:

"e" to edit
replace the boot parameters from ro xxxx xxxx to "rw init=/bin/bash"

and you'll be able to access a limited shell (no job control)

hence you can enable your network (dhclient didn't work for me) ie:

ifconfig eth0 <yourip>/<your netmask> up; route add default gw <your gw> eth0; echo "nameserver <your favorite dns>" > /etc/resolv.conf

Hence you'll be able to run apt-get or aptitude

As said before, despite all the updates applied in the last 15 hours, I had to reinstall to get the issue fixed
