[Bug 855793] Re: Kubuntu 11.10 beta 1: Error upgrading using muon

 

Similar for me also.
I installed two .iso images using VMware Player.
I installed Ubuntu 11.10 successfully and was able to perform all software updates.
I installed Kubuntu 11.10 successfully, but was *NOT* able to perform all software updates, and it hung at 56% Running dpkg .
I tried this solution:
http://askubuntu.com/questions/89401/first-update-after-fresk-kubuntu-install-hangs-bc-of-dpkg-now-what

Step 1: Open a Konsole and type:
ps -e | grep muon
sudo kill #### (number identified above (I had to supply my password, and now the muon-updater window closed))
exit (to close the Konsole)

Step 2: Re-boot (I used the Kickoff Application Launcher, Leave, Shut
Down, Turn Off, which automatically exits VMware Player)

Step 3: Play the Virtual Machine. Failure:
Error while opening the virtual machine: A serious error occured when accessing this virtual machine: Input/output error
Configuration file: \\[path stuff here]\My Documents\Virtual Machines\Kubuntu1110\Kubuntu1110.vmx.

Title:
  Kubuntu 11.10 beta 1: Error upgrading using muon

Status in “gtk+2.0” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in “kde-workspace” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  After installing Kubuntu 11.10 beta 1 in Virtualbox 4.1.2 (during
  installation I did not select to get updates) I tried to do a full
  update using muon package manager.

  The download of packages completed successfully but the installation
  process stuck on 20 %  on kate package update.

  After waiting for a long time ( about 1 hour), I killed the update
  process.

  Then, I restarted the virtual machine but my system is not functional
  (e.g no network, no sound, no way to perform updates).
