Hi fellows, I tried to qvm-clone & upgrade a debian-9 to debian-10
(buster). In a reproducible way, the apt-get dist-upgrade will fail
while installing (so: after download is finished) with the terminal
crashing surprisingly. So NO output is available.
I then (again: reproducibly) try to get access to the half-upgraded
system by running qvm-run -v -u root debian-10 xterm - which fails as
well saying "command failed with code 1" -- thereby not even unveiling a
minor hint where the error might sit. I have no idea how I could
possibly get to re-animate this half-dead install, if I cannot even get
an xterm. If I shutdown it, it will maybe start (or hang, who knows)
since it remains inaccessible. My last try is still running in hope for
some help from you.
Cheers, Bernhard
tried 'sudo xl console debian-10'?
I tried it 10h ago and it was completely stalled with random ascii-chars
mixed between text. I could not even quit it without killing the
dom0-terminal. Now, hours later, after reading you message, I tried once
more, and it worked, at least a bit: I could relaunch apt --fix-broken
and it went well - until it got stuck with "Setting up grub-pc" followed
by random-looking ascii code that actually is not random but should
probably be one of these "blue/white ascii boxes" with a text menu and
some choice that is instead shot "raw" and without color in the console
(and thus hardly readable). The console does not react any more on the
keyboard, no clue how to continue ...
