Title:
  [Dell Inspiron 1545] 12.10 gets stuck at the 5dots screen, but not
  12.04

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  I was running Ubuntu 12.04 and decided to upgrade to 12.10, I let the system download and install the upgrades. When I logged on Ubuntu came to a halt on the 5 dots screen (with the Ubuntu logo). I tried restarting the system several time to no avail. Since I needed to get some work done urgently I installed another copy of Ubuntu 12.04 on the same system, the setup let me create another partition. 
  Now I am running two systems on the same machine. All my software is installed in 12.10, and I would greatly like to gain access to it again please. Upon the behest of internet forums I have tried running fsck, tried the boot-repair, tried boot-repair with uncommenting GFX mode all to no avail. 
  I am currently logged into the same machine but on Ubuntu 12.04. Is there any way I can gain access to 12.10 again?
  Any help will be greatly appreciated, thank you.
