It seem the service or log was somehow corrupted, after which the whole system started acting like it had a red-hot iron skewer through its guts. Limited accounts couldn’t open, and the administrator account was also at a severe limp. Networking was dead too as well as just about anything I could have used to try and fix things
So, I’m just wondering what can be done, if anything, if this sort of thing happens again, anybody knows?
In this instance I reloaded an image, it worked, but it wasn’t very recent.
As to what happened, I’m not sure. I guess the system hung while installing updates, so that might have something to do with it.
