2014-10-17 Thread lina
Hi,

I managed to install the sysvinit and purge the systemd, it works.

Just for the records,

Best regards, lina

 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?).

   * At the shell run lvm vgchange -ay. This will make all your LVM LVs

   * Press Ctrl+D to exit the shell and continue booting.
   * With the system now up (hopefully), create the following file as
 /etc/initramfs-tools/scripts/local-premount/lvm

   lvm vgchange -ay
   * Make the file executable (chmod +x ...)
   * Rebuild the initramfs with sudo update-initramfs -u
 
  Your system should now boot reliably.

Ah, I ran into that problem myself the other day. My solution was:

 * Add break=premount to the end of your kernel commandline and boot
   * If you have panic=something set, remove it. For some reason,
 those two options conflict and you won't get a shell, even though
 you explicitly asked for one
 * The initramfs will break out to a shell before any file systems are
   mounted.
 * At the shell run lvm vgchange -ay. This will make all your LVM LVs
   available
 * Press Ctrl+D to exit the shell and continue booting.
 * With the system now up (hopefully), create the following file as
   /etc/initramfs-tools/scripts/local-premount/lvm
 #!/bin/sh

 lvm vgchange -ay
 * Make the file executable (chmod +x ...)
 * Rebuild the initramfs with sudo update-initramfs -u

Your system should now boot reliably.

[lina.lastn...@gmail.com: Re: failed to start remount root and kernel file system

2014-10-16 Thread Chris Bannister

Lina, could you post to the list only, please.
I haven't dived into systemd issues -- so can't help you, hoping someone
else can.

I see you refer to a [1], but it is not there! :)

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?).
