apt-get update, apt-get upgrade, and now system fails to boot
debian-user:
I have an Intel DQ67SW motherboard with Intel i7-2600S processor and
have installed debian-6.0.5-amd64 and the 3.2 kernel from backports.
I ran "apt-get update" and "apt-get upgrade" yesterday. Since then, the
system fails to boot:
Loading Linux 3.2.0-0.bpo.2-amd64 ...
Loading initial ramdisk ...
Loading, please wait...
Gave up waiting for root device. Common problems:
- Boot args (cat /proc/cmdline)
- Check rootdelay= (did the system wait long enough?)
- Check root= (did the system wait for the right device?)
- Missing modules (cat /proc/modules; ls /dev)
ALERT! /dev/mapper/sda2_crypt does not exist. Dropping to a shell!
Busybox v1.17.1 (Debian 1:1.17.1-8) built-in shell (ash)
Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands.
/bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off
(initramfs)
