I did the preupgrade yesterday on three machines without issue.

On my laptop, though, I'm having a problem with shutting the laptop down
now. It's a Lenovo W510+ and, during the shutdown process, when it
switches to text I see an error (don't remember the exact text offhand)
about shutdown having a problem. Then the laptop just stops and the
CapsLock light starts blinking. At this point I have to power down the
old Irish way by holding the power button.

Anybody else hitting this?

No, but it sounds like a kernel panic.

You should try hitting the escape key during shut down or boot with
"norhgb" (maybe even add "nomodeset") to stop plymouth from hiding any
kernel output.


I saw this on my first shutdown after pre-upgrading my Lenovo T61P. The errors suggested a $PATH issue, with many saying "/sbin/something not found." Have not shut down again.
