I absentmindedly shut down my machine during the upgrade. Now Linux gives me the login screen, and after that the home screen with no launcher icons some graphical glitches.

I believe booting from USB and trying to repair the install will fix the problem; is this correct? Or is there something I can do using the shell via Ctrl-Alt-F1 ?

Thanks in advance!

Try the following commands after you login :

sudo dpkg --configure -a

sudo apt-get install -f

and then

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

that should fix the broken packages if any
