issue system not booting #4138

Closed MINFM closed 1 month ago

MINFM commented 1 month ago

Hello folks

I was installing Black Arch on a virtual machine but when it was done I rebooted the machine and it showed:

ERROR: device '/dev/mapper/r00t' not found. Skipping fsck. mount: /new_root: no filesystem type specified. You are now being dropped into an emergency shell. sh: can't access tty; job control turned off

I can not even type anything in the shell for some reason what can the problem be and how can it get solved? do I need to reinstall the system?

Which hypervisor did you use?

you can start a live iso, mount your partition(s) and check /etc/fstab if the correct values are registered in there. If it isn’t, adjust accordingly.

It turned out because I did not give the machine enough storage I gave it only 47 gigabytes while it will take more than 60 gigabytes I reacreated the machine with 74 gigabytes of storsge and after that I removed the 21 gigabytes iso attachment and now it worked Thanks anyway
