My system was restored and I was running Karmic for a week. Now, the same problem arises. I again tried to follow your steps (below). Can you please tell me what should be removed or what causes the problem that should be removed when I'm in the problematic install (mount from disk - Solution mentioned by Ernst)
I don't think there are packages that provide faulty repos. Also, 'sudo gedit /ubuntu/ etc/apt/ sources. list' command opens a blank file. ------------------------------------------------ Boot with the liveCD/USB and do: sudo -s -H mkdir /media/ubuntu # system partition: mount /dev/sda5 /media/ubuntu #/home partition: mount /dev/sda7 /media/ubuntu/home mount --bind /dev/ /media/ubuntu/dev mount --bind /dev/pts /media/ ubuntu/ dev/pts mount --bind /dev/shm /media/ ubuntu/ dev/shm chroot /media/ubuntu mount -t sysfs sysfs /sys mount -t proc proc /proc dhclient Now, you are in your problematic install. You can use "sudo aptitude remove ....." to remove a certain package, "sudo nano /etc/apt/ sources. list" to remove repositories who provide faulty packages (or sudo gedit /ubuntu/ etc/apt/ sources. list on the host, which is more convenient for most people), "sudo aptitude install <package>/karmic to downgrade a package to karmic. -- ecryptfs mount does not support -f (fake mount) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/443080 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
