I follow the instructions, cleaned up the disk and /boot and started the upgrade, it seems to work fine until I touched the screen. The Terminal small window shrink to one line. The installation seems to hang at the following stage:

Well, Since I got no answer, I aborted the stuck installation. Then tried to reboot the computer, to my surprise it started with alphanumeric ttys (6 of them) on 16.04.1. I started to work on it, tried to burn a DVD, some library was missing for 'brasero'. I started to install following hints that I got from the system, and finally after some commands, that I list below, the system asked for reboot. Following the reboot I have a full functioning 16.04.1 (at least so it seems now).

The commands I typed following hints from the system: $ sudo apt-get install brasero $ sudo dpkg --configure -a

Then again, I tried

$ sudo apt-get install brasero $ sudo apt-get -f install $ sudo apt autoremove $ sudo apt upgrade $ sudo reboot

If more explanation is needed, I'll be glad to try and provide it. Regards.
