My comment above...... ...and it's workaround, may be more relevant to the "Alert! /dev/disk".... busybox failure to boot problem, than this thread which was said to be the original duplicate bug. That's why it's here. I do not know if this bug is in fact the cause of being dropped to busybox but the workaround worked for me and I just wanted to leave a trail for those of us that might wide up here. I posted this (previously VERY hard to find) workaround in the other bug duplicate and in the forums. Hopefully this will cause many to stick with (K)ubuntu. We had no other kernel to boot, once the upgrade process nixed the newly installed one. Now we can move ahead.
Obviously, this workaround can be used with any singular kernel boot failure (to get another one). Because SOMETIMES, another clean install wastes time (but clean installs are recommended). -- Nvidia MCP67 AHCI ata timeout exception with data loss https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/343919 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
