Bug Description

I keep getting a message at startup that says "unable to find /tmp" or unable to load /."
Plus, my sound will appear for a few minutes, then stop.
I tried to upgrade to newer version 14.10 and this thing went haywire.
What am I doing that's so wrong?

My laptop is an HP Compaq Presario F700.

Could I send you a screenshot of what errors I'm getting? My program will not load up and I can't get to the desktop. It just keeps booting to terminal command prompt.
