Hello,
I recently did a system update, in part because of some CVEs which are
recently identified and resolved:
https://lists.libreplanet.org/archive/html/info-guix/2026-07/msg00000.html
Unfortunately, my device hasnt migrated to linux kernel 7 (though I do
not expect its from cited vulnerabilities).
I lost internet connectivity having upgraded my system.
Now, having tried to boot up I receive this problem (reverting back to
earlier versions have the same issue):
```
initramfs name without nulterm: etc
/dev/root: Can't open blockdev
List of all bdev filesystems:
ext3
ext2
ext4
vfat
Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on
unknown-block(0,0)

---[ end Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on
unknown-block(0,0) ]----
```
I see there are myriad approaches out there but beyond risking the
damage of my partition(s), I want some clearer advice given the recent
security concerns.
Im also wondering how different Guix is than (say) Ubuntu to resolve
this.
Thanks,
Jonathan
