I updated on both my laptop and desktop. Desktop had no problem apart from an issue with the Dock. But the laptop had screen lock set..and I could not access the PC during the upgrade as it gave me authentication error. When the activity light stopped, I rebooted..hoping that it had all gone well and would restart. But now I keep getting a message saying "Oh! No! Something has gone wrong. A problem has occurred and the system cannot recover, please contact a system administrator" I have tried rebooting holding down the F8, F12 keys and no change in message....have I bricked it?

"bricked" refers to hardware that no longer works (it has the same usefulness of a brick). You should be able to reinstall the system. This may be the best option if you have multiple issues which it seems may be the case. – Nmath Apr 21 '22 at 02:49

The same way you installed it in the first place? – ChanganAuto Apr 21 '22 at 03:47
