Does another kernel boot it?<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On December 15, 2015 9:57:21 PM EST, Alex Carver <agcarver+ale@acarver.net> wrote:<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;">

When it came up it<br /> was waiting for a password (so it sat all day waiting for me to get back<br /> to find that) and then it proceeded to fail to mount any of the other<br /> disks in the system because the UUIDs wouldn't work. Running blkid on<br /> the partition
s shows
the right UUID which matches what is in fstab but<br /> didn't work. Using the /dev/sdxy references worked fine so I switched<br /> the fstab to use those but fstab will likely get rewritten by another<br /> kernel update (like it did already) so I need to figure out why UUID<br /> mounting is failing.<br /><br /> Anyone seen this before? It also happened on another machine that I<br /> refreshed recently. It couldn't boot its own root partition and I had<br /> to go in and fix the fstab to point to /dev/sdxy.<br /><hr /><br /> Ale mailing list<br /> Ale@ale.org<br /> <a href="http://mail.ale.org/mailman/listinfo/ale">http://mail.ale.org/mailman/listinfo/ale</a><br /> See JOBS, ANNOUNCE and SCHOOLS lists at<br /> <a href="http://mail.ale.org/mailman/listinfo">http://mail.ale.org/mailman/listinfo</a></blockquote><br /> <br /><hr /><br /> Ale mailing list<br /> Ale@ale.org<br /> <a href="http://mail.ale.org/mailman/listinfo/ale">http://mail.ale.org/mailman/listinfo/ale</a><b
