Hi again my Friends,
I was using a WINE application whose freeze let me to log out. The log out caused a black screen, and then I decided to manually restart the computer with the physical buttons.
- WINE mess-up => then too hastily restarted during log-out
After decrypting the drive, and what appears to be a normal boot – emergency mode is entered. Now logging in as asked lets me gather that the filesystem appears relatively intact (no visible problems).
Having skimmed through the full journalctl -xb logs. I’ve come across the various points/ideas, most of which are likely noise:
- Disable Spectre V2 protection in UEFI
- Something related to “usb 3-6: config 1 has an invalid interface number: 2 but max is 1”
Failed to mount /boot/efi<== (researching this atm.)
he logs are rather long nearly 3000 lines and hard to scrub and copy, please ask if there is something specific for a section.
Logs snippets:
... during mount:
PM: Image not found (code -22)
...
... during "inserted module 'crypto_user'
KD_FONT_OP_GET failed white trying to get the font metadata: invalid argument.
...
... During LUKS Cryptography setup for, and then later for NVIDIA:
Disabling lock debugging due to kernel taint
... during: mounting /boot/efi
.. unknown filesystem type 'vfat' ..
.. boot-efi.mount: Mount process exited, .., status=32/n/a
.. boot-efi.mount: failed with result "exit-code".
.. Dependency failed for Local File Systems.
“exiting” with systemctl default circles back to the initial emergency mode.
Any ideas?
Also,
