Your system is currently running kernel 6.14.0-33, but the boot symlinks point to kernel 6.17.0- - 14-generic, which has an initrd image created today (Feb 8 21:37) but the kernel itself is from January. The "VFS: - Unable to mount root fs" error typically occurs when: + Today software update is done with 'apt'. But there was an issue with + Nvidia driver upgrade. Up on reboot with Kernel, 6.17.0-14, the "VFS: + Unable to mount root fs" error is shown. - 1. The initrd is missing required drivers for your root filesystem - 2. The initrd is corrupted or doesn't match the kernel - 3.
