Mint 8 Broken
A few days ago, the MintUpdate has having issues installing an OpenOffice update. I would never finish. I tried to run the update via the CLI and that didn't work. Then I tried via Synaptic. Still no good. I shutdown and when it went to reboot it won't. I tried booting into the recovery mode but I keep getting a bunch of gobblelygook which ends with
Anybody have any ideas on how I can fix this?

shabadu,
I see that this has gone unanswered since Tuesday, and I apologize that you have not received an answer.
Where are you on this? Have you been able to reboot? Have you done a reinstallation (hopefully with your data on a separate /home partition or using Puppy to save your data elsewhere)?
God Bless

Re: Mint 8 Broken
quick googling lead me to this..
take note at the part

andFound that by removing quiet and splash from the grub boot entry I could boot up OK again
dont know if it can help you in any way but i do hope it does so you can continue MINTing together with us here.. good luck..I had almost the same problem of "Could not access PID file for nmbd" (except that I could enter a root shell) and removing only splash option in /boot/grub/menu.lst solved it,
