[Bug 1575274] [NEW] System Crash during 16.04 Upgrade from 14.04

 

Public bug reported:

I was upgrading 2 machines from Trusty to Xenial. I had success on my
laptop...but had a system crash on my main machine running Ubuntu-Studio
14.04. I have tried  creating LIVE-USB's to reboot and repair the
install...but to no avail. No matter what I do I arrive at the same
"Call Trace" and "end Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill
init! exit code=0x00007f00" message.

The system freezes at that point and there is absolutely no forward
movement from there.

HELP! My machine is completely crashed...I believe this is Ubuntu's
answer to the "Windows Blue Screen of Death".

Please advise how I can repair my Ubuntu Studio 16.04 installation.
Thanks.
