[SOLVED] Unable to find root device

So I'm getting this error. It seems to be common enough, after trying some existing solutions, I am confounded.

ERROR: device '...' not found. Skipping fsck.
ERROR: Unable to find root device '...'.
You are being dropped to a recovery shell
    Type 'exit' to try and continue booting
sh: can't access tty: job control turned off
[rootfs /]#

So I got my Arch Live CD, chrooted into my installation (with arch-chroot method in wiki page). I can access my files and stuff. I can even use pacman -Syu. Then I try mkinitcpio -p linux and I get a TONNE of errors after some of the build hooks.

  -> Running build hook: (insert whatever hook it is)
==> ERROR: module not found: (insert whatever module it is)
==> ERROR: so and so

and at the end:

==> WARNING: No modules were added to the image. This is probably not what you want.
==> Creating gzip-compressed...
==> WARNING: errors were encountered during the build. The image may not be complete.

And, predictably, I encounter the same issue when I try to reboot.

Can anybody help?

Re: [SOLVED] Unable to find root device

You need to mount proc, sys, dev so that mkinitcpio will make an image.  Do you have root=/dev/xxx rw parameters in bootloader?


I may have to CONSOLE you about your usage of ridiculously easy graphical interfaces...

Re: [SOLVED] Unable to find root device

I made sure to mount proc, sys, dev, and I retried. I get the same errors. Can you elaborate on your second sentence? Not sure what you mean, or how to check that.

Re: [SOLVED] Unable to find root device

What bootloader are you using?  And you need to chroot into the root of the directory where the installation is.

Re: [SOLVED] Unable to find root device

You can try to mount the root and usr from the emergency shell.   It looks as if you don't have a root defined, but what does your grub.cfg show?

Re: [SOLVED] Unable to find root device

If by emergency shell you mean fallback initramfs, I tried it when I first encountered this problem and it didn't work. Do you think it should work now? I suppose I'll try it anyway.

Also, I'm not sure how to copy the grub.cfg info to these forums, as all I have right now is the console.

EDIT: initramfs fallback does not work.

Re: [SOLVED] Unable to find root device

Emergency shell from where it won't mount root.

Re: [SOLVED] Unable to find root device

Sorry, I didn't make this clear earlier. When I boot into Arch, I can't use my keyboard to interact with the given shell. This is the grub.cfg content.

Re: [SOLVED] Unable to find root device

Ok it's using UUID to find root.  If you're having trouble using the USB keyboard, you need to add usbinput to your hooks.

Re: [SOLVED] Unable to find root device

It says that the hook usbinput is deprecated and to use hook keyboard instead, and keyboard is already there. I still cannot use my keyboard to interact with the terminal in early init.

If I may remind you, I get

==> ERROR: module not found: `oxu210hp_hcd`

and many other like errors after multiple build hooks, including keyboard, when using mkinitcpio -p linux.

Re: [SOLVED] Unable to find root device

Do you have a separate /usr partition?  In which case, you need usr and shutdown hooks, as well as mounting the separate usr in liveCD.

Re: [SOLVED] Unable to find root device

The kernel in your /boot, and the modules in /usr/lib/modules have clearly become desynchronised. This can happen when you have a separate /boot partition, but don't have it mounted when you update your kernel package.

The best thing to do is, on a liveCD, mount your root partition, and mount your boot partition on it, then reinstall your kernel package (either by chrooting or by by using "pacman --root").

Re: [SOLVED] Unable to find root device

Alright, so step by step, from a LiveCD (my arch partition is /dev/sda4, GRUB is installed in the MBR of /dev/sda)

mkdir /mnt/arch
mount /dev/sda4 /mnt/arch
cd /mnt/arch
mount -t proc proc proc/
mount --rbind /sys sys/
mount --rbind /dev dev/

Using your advice, what would be the next commands? I don't want to mess things up on accident. =p

Re: [SOLVED] Unable to find root device

rbind? Ooh nice. If I'm chrooting, I normally end up mounting dev and dev/pts separately. I'll have to remember that one for the future.

...anyway, assuming that you don't have a boot partition (or an EFI system partition [ESP]), the next thing to do is chroot into /mnt/arch, then use pacman to resync your kernel. Assuming that works, you should be able to boot again.

If you don't have a boot partition (or ESP), then the question is: how did your system get into such an inconsistent state? Did you remove any folders in /usr/lib/modules lately?

EDIT: Forgot to mention, if you've booted a (recent) Arch liveCD, you can just use arch-chroot to chroot into your Arch partition, rather than manually binding dev/sys/proc.

Re: [SOLVED] Unable to find root device

Indeed, I don't have a separate boot partition it seems.

So I did the following:

chroot /mnt/arch /bin/bash

EDIT: No, I didn't mess with any files in /usr/lib/modules. I have absolutely no idea why what's happening is happening.

So reinstalling kernel doesn't work. Any advice?

EDIT2: Also, yeah, I used chroot instead of arch-chroot because of what nomorewindows told me.

Re: [SOLVED] Unable to find root device

That is very odd. From a chroot, can you post the output of

modinfo ext4

. Also the output of

ls -l /

and

ls -l /usr/lib/modules

may be useful.

Re: [SOLVED] Unable to find root device

Well that's not a good sign, and probably the cause of your problem (rather than the desynchronised kernel/modules I mentioned earlier). Reinstall kmod from the chroot, then reinstall your kernel again.

Re: [SOLVED] Unable to find root device

Any idea how your kmod became broken? Did you do anything that might have corrupted/removed the package lately? Your pacman.log might shed some light on the latter if that's what happened.

Also, now that you're back up and running, you may want to address the depreciation warnings that mkinitcpio has been giving you. I suspect you have a few .pacnew files to address.

Re: [SOLVED] Unable to find root device

Not sure how kmod became broken, but I did install openjdk before all this went down. I checked pacman.log and I found this:

[2014-10-08 20:33] [PACMAN] Running 'pacman -S jdk8-openjdk'
[2014-10-08 20:33] [ALPM-SCRIPTLET] when you use a non-reparenting window manager
[2014-10-08 20:33] [ALPM-SCRIPTLET] set _JAVA_AWT_WM_NONREPARENTING=1 in
[2014-10-08 20:33] [ALPM-SCRIPTLET] /etc/profile.d/jre.sh
[2014-10-08 20:33] [ALPM-SCRIPTLET] find: `/usr/bin/modinfo': Too many levels of symbolic links
[2014-10-08 20:33] [PACMAN] installed jre8-openjdk (8.u20-3)
[2014-10-08 20:33] [ALPM-SCRIPTLET] find: `/usr/bin/modinfo': Too many levels of symbolic links
[2014-10-08 20:33] [PACMAN] installed jdk8-openjdk (8.u20-3)

Interesting!

Anyway, the depreciation warnings in mkinitcpio are due to the suggestion of nomorewindows to include the deprecated usbinput hook in mkinitcpio.conf.
