Well, since this forum is aimed at developers (mostly Windows), you would probably do better in the Ubuntu forums.
I see this on one:
Quote:
What is the use of recovery mode options?
There are a total of 8 options:

resume: Resumes to the normal boot with the selected kernel.
clean: As the name suggests, it is used to free up some storage space.
dpkg: If you installed a package and due to some reason, it wasn't installed properly, or is broken and your system is malfunctioning, then, you can use this option.
fsck: It will perform an intensive file check on your drives and attempt to solve if found any.
grub: Update the grub config file.
network: Activates the internet so you can perform all the operations like updating packages, or upgrading to a new version of Ubuntu, etc.
root: Drops you in the root shell with all the privileges you would ever need to modify or troubleshoot the system.
system-summary: Prints system information including partitions, RAM, network config, and more.


You can also use it for forgotten password.
Personally, running debian, I use a live CD/USB when I screw things up. I also use a free imaging program to back my system up.

It’s weird being the same age as old people. Live every day like it is your last; one day, it will be.
