SSD going read only causing errors while updates & upgrading to 26.04

(Please put such output in pre-formatted CODE blocks; click </> on an empty line and paste into the new element.)

Check what happens when you follow the log:

journalctl -f

If that is too much output, reduce it by just focusing on high priority messages, like err or warning.

journalctl -f -p err

If that shows I/O Error or similar, do as @ogra suggested in the other topic.

If everything seems to checkout, you should rescue what hold dear from that device and replace it. Also, see that other link I posted in the adjacent topic:

I have since read it to the end and it’s the real deal; someone with experience showing the way to debug such an issue. Don’t bother with dmesg, though; it’s all in the journal, hence journalctl shows those kernel messages too; it can even be limited to those:

journalctl --dmesg
