Rich:
You have an incomplete system - you somehow missed some steps in the
upgrade; otherwise, you would not have anything missing. Look very
closely at step #9 in the upgrade instructions and perform that step
again.
The problem, at this point, is that troubleshooting becomes very
difficult -- if that part of the upgrade was incorrect, then what
other parts were not completed properly? In essence, it might be
a good idea to do a fresh install - assuming /home is on a separate
partition, it will almost certainly be faster than continuing on this
road.
