Using the “recovery boot” option hanged a long time with the message "waiting for resume device". Some googling lead be to the bug #206358, and I deduced that do- release-upgrade “messed with my swap” (as said by @aldebx on there). This was a LVM set-up with an encrypted swap, which may explain the bug. My workaround, form the root login of the recovery mode was the following 1. comment out the RESUME line in /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/resume 2. rebuild the initramfs with update-initramfs -u 3. mount the /boot partiton to actually put the initramfs on the correct place Now the systems boots again, but this problem shouldn’t have happened in the first place.
