Re: [LINUX_Newbies] Linux 9.1 update

 

Ubuntu is having trouble mounting one or more of your file systems. It could
be that the file system has something irregular that needs to be checked,
possibly do to a hard boot (poweinr down without exiting) or power outage
sometime in the past. It may need to be checked with fsck.

You can try to skip the drive by doing Ctrl-D as suggested if it isn't
critical to getting Ubuntu running. If you have only one drive or partition
then this is not likely the case, but I will mention it in case you have
multiple drives, such as usb drives or keys that could be the guilty party.
If it is a critical file system you can try to run fsck on that drive.

This is not probably something that you feel comfortable doing, but you
don't have a lot of options. You can try to resolve the problem with fsck -y
sdaX with X being the drive number 1, 2, 3 etc. or you can try to re-install
Ubuntu. Nothing ventured nothing gained.
