I installed unity 5.0 on my Ubuntu 12.04 experimental system. After installation of unity 5.0 plus some normal updates the system still boots but is shutting down because of kernel panik. I tried to recover in the repair mode, however, the system refuses dpkg --configure -a by stating that the files are read only. Same reactions on every installed kernel. Help needed.

This question is unlikely to help any future visitors; it is only relevant to a small geographic area, a specific moment in time, or an extraordinarily narrow situation that is not generally applicable to the worldwide audience of the internet.

You should make sure the disk is in good condition first. sudo umount /dev/sda1 sudo fsck /dev/sda1 Be careful with this, you don't mention why it's mounting as read only. However, it is possible to re-mount the root filesystem in r/w mode. Try something like this to remount sudo mount -o rw,remount -force /dev/sda1 / |
