https://www.zdnet.com/article/how-to-upgrade-from-ubuntu-linux-16-04-to-18-04/
to upgrade. I faced some issues with sudo apt update && sudo apt
upgrade. Some of my packages were broken so had to remove them. I
believe the update and upgrade commands work fine now. Executing sudo
do-release-upgrade does not work and I always get this message on the
terminal saying "Restoring original system state". I cannot see any
specific errors that could help me debug this issue.
Could I please get some assistant on this?
