I was trying to remove libssl in order reinstall an older version, so I typed a command to purge it and by accident I actually purged A LOT of more things, like apps and important OS packages.
Long story short, I rebooted the machine and now I cant pass the login screen (after typing password, it just comes back to login menu again).
I managed to save the terminal list of purges and this is it:

I tried ctrl+shift+f1 to access terminal and reinstall all this, but I seems I don-t have wlan0 and eth0 anymore
/var/log/apt/term.log
and/var/log/apt/history.log
should have a more confident list of removals.wlan0

, you'll have some longer thing. Tryifconfig
to see if anything other thanlo
comes up.
