Public bug reported: after updating my system i couldnt boot anymore, i was dumped back to "initramfs" commandline that complained that /dev/disk/by-uuid/mydiskid - was missing, and in fact an uuid for my root partition was completly gone.
I fixed it by changing grub entry to /dev/sda3 (in my case) and my pc booted correctly again. in initramfs CLI doing blkid DID NOT show the uuid for my root partition at all. after changing the UUID in grub entry to /dev/sda3 i can boot just fine, and i can see the partition uuid in blkid - its still same UUID - nothing changed. Also even now when i can boot correctly i dont see any entry for this UUID in /dev/disk/by-uuid - its missing. ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- after recent update (2009.11.25) to 2.6.31-15 cant boot with root partition https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/488148 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
