The upgrading went smooth itself. Laptop still can boot up with the latest 4.4 kernel of 16.04 which I did a regular update/upgrade before 16.10 release upgrade. Then I tried to boot with 16.10 Live USB and got same result. It also can boot up with kernel 4.8 if "acpi=off" parameter in place, but it takes long time to boot up. Everything seems fine after logged in and Unity 8 session works too. I couldn't get any log files since the system won't boot up, Ctrl+Alt+F1 does nothing. I can only see some messages in text boot mode, so I took a screen shot with my phone and attached here. Let me know how to get more details. --- ApportVersion: 2.20.3-0ubuntu8 Architecture: amd64 AudioDevicesInUse: USER PID ACCESS COMMAND /dev/snd/controlC0: renm 2918 F.... pulseaudio /dev/snd/controlC1: renm 2918 F.... pulseaudio CurrentDesktop: Unity DistroRelease: Ubuntu 16.10 HibernationDevice: RESUME=UUID=7e8ca036-f81d-43e2-820a-1deadcffc2dc InstallationDate: Installed on 2016-10-08 (13 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS "Xenial Xerus" - Release amd64 (20160719) MachineType: Hewlett-Packard HP Pavilion dm3t Notebook PC Package: linux (not installed) ProcFB: 0 radeondrmfb 1 radeondrmfb ProcKernelCmdLine: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-4.8.0-22-generic root=UUID=19005996-db50-4249-9c73-17cf874dc678 ro acpi=off ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.8.0-22.24-generic 4.8.0 RelatedPackageVersions: linux-restricted-modules-4.8.0-22-generic N/A linux-backports-modules-4.8.0-22-generic N/A linux-firmware 1.161 Tags: yakkety Uname: Linux 4.8.0-22-generic x86_64 UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to yakkety on 2016-10-15 (6 days ago) UserGroups: adm cdrom dip lpadmin plugdev sambashare sudo _MarkForUpload: True dmi.bios.date: 10/13/2010 dmi.bios.vendor: Hewlett-Packard dmi.bios.version: F.15 dmi.board.asset.tag: Base Board Asset Tag dmi.board.name: 1482 dmi.board.vendor: Hewlett-Packard dmi.board.version: 76.34 dmi.chassis.asset.tag: Chassis Asset Tag dmi.chassis.type: 10 dmi.chassis.vendor: Hewlett-Packard dmi.chassis.version: Chassis Version dmi.modalias: dmi:bvnHewlett-Packard:bvrF.15:bd10/13/2010:svnHewlett-Packard:pnHPPaviliondm3tNotebookPC:pvr0486200000241F00110320000:rvnHewlett-Packard:rn1482:rvr76.34:cvnHewlett-Packard:ct10:cvrChassisVersion: dmi.product.name: HP Pavilion dm3t Notebook PC dmi.product.version: 0486200000241F00110320000 dmi.sys.vendor: Hewlett-Packard To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1635447/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : kernel-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
