Hi!
Hi, and thank you so much for your help.
Please run «dpkg -D77777 --configure -a 2>&1 | tee dpkg.log», and
attach the output. We can check from there
It is attached, but it terminates before the output on the screen
terminated. The last output on the screen was

Hmm, if you are on an emergency shell, I guess the system is not
properly booted, are all partitions mounted? Otherwise there's no
wonder things are not being configured correctly.
If that's the case, then this is probably a problem with your init
system or thereabouts.
Yes I think that's exactly the case, though as you can see from the
forum thread I dare not hypothesise that these problems have arisen
because this update has introduced systemd.
My best guess (and I am not an expert by any means) is that there is
some memory corruption or overflow in the init system which is polluting
everything else, including dpkg. I do not understand what "task
(plymouth)" is or why it keeps being blocked, and I do not know which
process is sending "Hangup" to dpkg.
On mounting, the root filesystem mounts ok (/dev/dm-2) and contains all
the linux directories including /usr, /home, /usr/local etc. etc. The
filesystems which fail to mount are all Windows ones, which are
obviously irrelevant at this stage.
Many thanks again - any further tips appreciated.
