I tried to upgrade from 12.04 to 12.10 and am encountering a problem with graphics drivers.
My plan is to re-install 12.04.
Before I do that, I would like to copy some files from the machine. I'm able to boot successfully from a disk with 12.04, but I can't find my old home directory, as the only user in the home
directory is ubuntu
.
I've also tried to ssh into the machine, when it had booted (without graphics) but was unable to.
Is there a way to get to the old filesystem directory while booting from a CD? Any other suggestions?
gksu nautilus
.home
directory is theubuntu
user, when I boot from the CD. I'll add this information to the question.
