Hi, Adam Borowski: > If you can get as far as fully running grub (ie, the partition with /boot > and thus usually / as well is readable), you can as well boot with the > bestest init system Debian has: the mighty /bin/bash! > The key word is "usually". If root is mountable, you could also start systemd in emergency mode, which (via "systemctl start debug-shell") allows you to observe why the boot fails without otherwise inter fering with it.
If not (RAID config missing and thus mdadm not in the initramfs, encryption setup borked, …), a shell won't help, no matter how mighty. ;-) -- -- Matthias Urlichs -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
