i know that a working machine should not be upgraded, it doesnt work as before.
This is not true. The first thing I do is install all updates. Then updates should be installed at least monthly.
what am i supposed to install without problems?
Click the install button in the Updates tab. It will install all updates.
so everything is in the list , is good to update?
It should be. That is the reasoning behind using a super stable Linux distro like Debian for the base of OMV. Everything in the list should be a bug fix or security fix.
If your system is that critical, you should setup a test system to test updates before applying them to the primary system.
and the result is.... 
ryecoaaron The text console showed something as "lost connection", "failed something"

Not for my case it broke my boot partition, my grub is stuck in welcome to grub! But if I use a back-up before those update I am able to boot 
and the result is....
It is hard to say went wrong without the output from the updates.

There are bugs in all software. I have fixed hundreds more windows systems than linux. Not sure what to tell you. As with the OP, I don't know what you system is doing during the update. If grub is failing, don't reboot.
ryecoaaron in my case, second time that updates goes wrong.
If there is not a clear command to re set as it was, i will go for re install, isnt it?
If you do not make verified to be restorable backups of your OS disk you will eventually find yourself where you are now.
and the result is....
It is telling you, that your root filesystem has issues. It asks you to run fsck manually. Have you tried?
i did reinstall, and i think i ll not be updating in the next future...
You still never posted the output to know what went wrong. If you want to prevent the issue I think you had, you put the grub packages on hold with the apttool plugin.
ryecoaaron you have to understand that i was dos-programming my Casio in 1985 to have an help in my College exams (not hardware/software concerned).
Now i am approaching a total new language.
Something like apttoll , is a total black hole for me.
I will be searching for some Debian manual.
By the way , while re installing, i went for a Phenom II and 8gb ram, and well it goes smoooth

I was programming a TI-99/4a in 1981. I'm old too lol. You can do it.

apttool is a plugin. but just run this command from the command line
sudo apt-mark hold grub-common grub-pc grub-pc-bin grub2-common
