[Bug 1623774] Re: Ubuntu 16 unable to create 80-container-host0.network.dpkg-new

[Eugene Shcherban]

OK. I went and check fs:

root at rescue:~# fsck -f /dev/xvda1 
fsck from util-linux-ng 2.17.2
e2fsck 1.41.12 (17-May-2010)
Pass 1: Checking inodes, blocks, and sizes
Pass 2: Checking directory structure
Pass 3: Checking directory connectivity
Pass 4: Checking reference counts
Pass 5: Checking group summary information
cloudimg-rootfs: 578609/2732032 files (0.3% non-contiguous), 4052539/8388608 blocks
root at rescue:~#


then restarted the VPS and attempted apt-get update/upgrade:
