I have succeed doing the upgrade of this important 14.04 machine to 16.04
I went through the long error logs
/var/crash/sysv-rc.0.crash and the longer one on do-release upgrade
and I found this piece of info...
I had a custom init.d file that depend on rc.local
but rc.local depends on $all
there is a script that tries to convert init script into systemd
but could not figure out which comes first
my script depending on rc.local and rc.local depending on $all did not make sense.
