Re: failed to start remount root and kernel file system
Hi, I managed to install the sysvinit and purge the systemd, it works. Just for the records, Best regards, lina On Thu, Oct 16, 2014 at 9:09 PM, Darac Marjal mailingl...@darac.org.uk wrote: On Thu, Oct 16, 2014 at 08:58:37PM +0800, lina wrote: I installed the lvm and its dependencies, it shows /local-premount/lvm: not found problem persists ... Well, if you're not using LVM, then yes that won't apply. It wasn't possible to tell that from your fstab. Basically, the error you're getting is telling you that the initramfs can't find the disk with UUID=4c106bc2-cb98-4795-9cff-6da66d0da771. If you're able to use the break=premount option, then you can run blkid in the shell to see what block devices are available at that point. If the device with that UUID isn't in the list, then you'll need to look at your system to work out why not (has the device gone missing? has the UUID (which is a property of the file system) changed? has some subsystem (LVM in *my* case) not started?).

Well, if you're not using LVM, then yes that won't apply. It wasn't possible to tell that from your fstab. Basically, the error you're getting is telling you that the initramfs can't find the disk with UUID=4c106bc2-cb98-4795-9cff-6da66d0da771. If you're able to use the break=premount option, then you can run blkid in the shell to see what block devices are available at that point. If the device with that UUID isn't in the list, then you'll need to look at your system to work out why not (has the device gone missing? has the UUID (which is a property of the file system) changed? has some subsystem (LVM in *my* case) not started?).
