    [SOLVED, BUT DON'T SHUT THREAD FOR NOW] Boot loop after "apt-get upgrade"

    Put it straight - I previously had CSSU Testing, Kernel-Power 50, Kernel-BFS 10 and NITDroid 12 @ kernel 06-final1 running harmoniously, but after my school shut down its schoolwide WiFi I hadn't updated my wares for 2 total months... Then today I decided to update using "apt-get update" and "apt-get upgrade"(which is same as usual) via notebook-shared WiFi (through cable) and hell, it works fine and everything was updated. I remembered seeing a lot items like osso-xxxx (CSSU related?) but no else. Then I pushed "reboot" via power menu and phone rebooted to usual Multiboot menu, but whatever kernel I chose, the NOKIA logo appears, blackens (all usual) AND after 2 or 3 secs random colour notif. LED light pops up and phone reboots. REBOOT LOOP?! (I'm sure I'm fully charged)
    Now stuck in a WTF condition - phone bootable, Multiboot enterable, system almost enterable, NITDroid working as usual (strange)... any way to reverse previous changes? Any way to solve this loop apart from flashing?

    [SOLVED with rescue OS]

    this happened with me too month ago and that is because of your /root directory is full i think the only way is reflashing and i hope not

    Aww shucks... I don't wanna reflash anymore... cuz a reflash kills 2 whole days plus a GB of data flow... Any other way?

    See the above link. This caused a reboot loop for some people.

    All right I see that post, but I don't know whether I'd updated that package that day (or ever installed that) AND even if I happen to know, there's no way to undo it in Android, right? I HAVE TO reflash, right?!

    @AndyYan,

    You don't happen to have backupmenu or recovery console installed?

    With either of them you'd be able to replace the broken lib (libxau6).

    Don't even know what they are in the first place... So that means there's absolutely no solution?

    dont do apt-get upgrade when devel repository enabled, unless you know and sure what are you doing, just saying,
