Computer failing to boot after Grub post-beesd activity

Support
1

Hello Manjaro Forum,

It is today that I beg thee for thy wizarding ways.

In short, my computer is no longer able to boot past the Grub screen, failing to load a kernel and/or possibly being unable to detect a valid filesystem from the UUID of my BTRFS boot disk. This is a 1tb nvme drive on which I was performing some (perhaps unwise) optimizations via the use of beesd in an attempt to retake some disk space.

I have been able to confirm the sanctity of the disk contents at least, and am able to (more or less) access all device contents from a bootable recovery thumbdrive. What I cannot seem to do, sadly, is boot into the nvme itself. All snapshots fail, as does the primary loaded image. It seems that all kernels fail to boot in this manner.

After grub begins, there is an error that indicates it may not have been able to list the partitions from the nvme drive, as the other sd’s all show up as potential options. Not 100% sure what to make of that.

Things that have worked:

  • Manually mounting the device from the recovery disk
  • chroot into mounted nvme drive
  • accessing any data on the same

Things I have tried, and that have failed:

  • manually updating brub config during boot to try different options / see if I can designate the device in a way that is not uuid (relative device path from root, device name, etc.)
  • pacman -Syu finds no updates
  • mkinitcpio -P && update-grub, reboot does not manage to fix the issue
  • btrfs check /dev/nvme0n1p2 reports no errors found
  • chrooted mhwd-kernel -i linux615 failed to boot. Images appeared to be created correctly, and neither mkinitcpio nor grub reported any notable errors.

Any advice and suggestions would be appreciated. Happy to provide additional system configurations as needed. It is a little difficult to capture the error screen at this time as it requires me to reboot my computer, so please bear with me when those are required.

After some digging I found another user that had a similar issue. Things aren’t looking too good tbh. After update blue screen

It is a tool that should be used with caution - and only from within a chroot as it is an offline tool.

bees is a block-oriented userspace deduplication agent designed to scale up to large btrfs filesystems. It is an offline dedupe combined with an incremental data scan capability to minimize time data spends on disk from write to dedupe.
– GitHub - Zygo/bees: Best-Effort Extent-Same, a btrfs dedupe agent

btrfs is not like most other file systems - one has to understand how it work to realise how it should be used.

Because it is copy-on-write feature - it will quickly run full if you add and remove a lot of files in a short period of time - which will lead to the thought that disk is exhausted an you need to do maintenance.

8

The kernel is looking for your btrfs root subvolume on an ext4 filesystem. In other words, you most likely have the wrong UUID for the root filesystem in /etc/fstab and in /etc/default/grub.

9

That shouldn’t be it.

I feel… Exceptionally ridiculous for not catching on to that detail.

Currently making data backups in the event that it’s not possible, but I’d like to give recovery of the existing environment a shot. At the very least everything I’ve done withing the chroot environment has worked, just not sure what to make of that at this time.

11

Is there a way to do eg. a complete refresh within the chroot environment without reinstalling the base OS? Optimally I can keep everything else as-is, even if I wind up needing to reinstall some packages.

12

I understand - just be sure you copy your important data to external storage /home/$USER including hidden files and folders - exclude ~/.cache :slight_smile:

possibly - if you can mount everything and the system layout appears OK - and you can copy your important data to external media.

You can use the btrfs tools to repair the filesystem.

I am a stranger to btrfs - I have touched it - I am using it on my laptops - I don’t have important data there - my primary workstation is using ext4 - I don’t trust btrfs that much :slight_smile: I have had my share of btrfs going bonkers on me - but I am learning - until the day I fully understand the intricacies of btrfs - I will stay with the tried and trusted ext4.

13

Very valid.

possibly - if you can mount everything and the system layout appears OK - and you can copy your important data to external media

That appears to be the case! I don’t appear to have any identifiable data damage, but reinstalling the kernel and rerunning grub installations appear to be failing, so I’m not completely sure where the error lies.

14

Ran it again to be sure, but btrfs can’t find anything wrong with the device…

I was able to mess around a little bit in the grub cli, but I wasn’t quite able to get to a point where it would properly boot into root. The closest I got was actually a loading screen, but after then it wasn’t able to correctly load the root volume as it wasn’t defined in the boot parameters. Then again, defining more than vmlinuz and root crashes with a page alloc error, so that seems a pretty dead end.

In re. the blue screen/kernel panic, it appears that the nvme isn’t listed at all? I’m wondering if there was some sort of issue and the relevant driver failed to get loaded into the image or kernel? I’m not sure how to investigate that at this time though.

17

This is rather useless in this context, given this does no data integrity checking. And you just ran a tool to attempt to de-dupe data.

You need to run a scrub of the data to validate it for this step. (e.g. sudo btrfs scrub start /dev/nvme0n1p2, and status to see the progress, kernel logs contain errors. )

Once there, we can see if there is anything to boot from.

Error summary:    no errors found
19

That is really bizarre, like it’s trying to boot the btrfs device as an ext partition? Which is hard to see… The rest of that is in dmesg… (Rather than taking pics of your monitor as you seem to know how to get text out of a chroot’d environment. If there is anything of relevance there…)

After you run mhwd-kernel -i .. (you said with no errors), what is the contents of /boot/grub/grub.cfg ?)

20

I was wondering where that was stored :slight_smile: Unfortunately I don’t think it saved; since the device was never mounted properly and the kernel panicked, I assume that it was all in RAM and never got writ to disk (but I could be very wrong about this). But yes, either it’s trying to load it as an sd (and failing because that’s the wrong driver?) or not seeing it (which I’ve more or less confirmed isn’t the case from experimenting with manual grub boot).

Edit: journalctl --list-boot show 2 boots only in it’s history under chroot, yesterday and on the 20th, which I know for a fact isn’t complete.

Actually, I didn’t add that update. When I was messing around with manually attempting to boot grub, I got a grub_efi_drop_alloc() called with wrong page count error whenever I provided more that the basic 2 values in the linux prompt. I had nearly managed a boot but encountered an error indicating that root wasn’t properly mounted (which makes sense because the subvol option wasn’t passed).

Like this:

grub> linux /@/boot/vmlinuz-6.12-x86_64 root=UUID=[nvme-uuid]
grub_efi_drop_alloc() called with wrong page count
Aborted. Press any key to exit.

Edit: well, that one fails anyways with just the two, but it’s consistent on that step
