I'm also pretty much stuck here, after choosing M, while being root,
entering apt-get install -f yields:

W: Not using locking for read only lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock
E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure --a' to 
correct the problem.

Then when enter dpkg --configure -a:

dpkg: error: unable to access dpkg status area: Read-only file system

Is there any way for me to recover from here without formatting the
system? This also happened because of an unexpected shutdown while
upgrading from 10.10 to 11.04, so I believe it's pretty much the same
problem with everyone here.
