It finally happened: the upgrade messed my J1... a good run though, almost 6 years.

The upgrade couldn't complete, told to reboot. I suspected something might go awry and lo&behold: grey screen.
There was enough space, no patches, yadda-yadda but the upgrade went nuts all the same. Tried with btrfs repair but didn't help. No biggie, was more of a toy nowadays.

After factory reset started to upgrade way back from 1.0.0.5 (it was nice to see SFOS 1 silica for a change ) through the stop releases and got as far as 2.2.0.29 but then the upgrade to 3.0.0.8 refused to co-operate several times. Have to give it another look later... I'd hate to start all over again so maybe some of this helps.

EDIT: Success. First nothing seemed to help, but going through all the clean ups +
Code:
ssu re 2.2.0.29
pkcon refresh
pkcon update
reboot
and I was finally able to upgrade succesfully first to 3.0.0.8 and in the end to 3.2.0.12.
