[SOLVED] strange problem with boot managers: unable to find root devic

Hi,

I have a weird problem with arch. I have it installed for a while and realized that my kernels are not upgrading.
After upgrading linux package (and rebooting), uname -a still returns the old kernel version.

I realized that ESP partition is not mounted on boot and thus, kernel update was creating vmlinuz and initramfs files that were never used.

I mounted ESP partition as /boot and run pacman -S linux and after that I can't login to the system.It says "unable to find root device".
I have thinkpad W540, with two drives: one is normal /dev/sda hdd while /dev/sdb is m.2 ssd drive.
As a boot loader I have grub that is installed on the first drive on the EFI partition(/dev/sda2) that came with the pre-installed windows.

I realized that it must be something with initramfs, so I rebooted into a live sysstem.
UEFI is running, efivars are available and efibootmgr works as well.
I did:

mkdir /mnt/arch
mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/arch
arch-chroot /mnt/arch
mount /dev/sda2 /boot
pacman -S udev
pacman -S mkinitcpio
pacman -S linux
mkinitcpio -p linux
grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg

after rebooting, still the same, cannot find my root drive. I've tried to edit grub option from UUID (which is correct) to /dev/sdb1, still no help.

I even tried reinstalling grub and making new bootloader configuration (as in the original system install) but the same happens.

Then I installed gummiboot, the menu is shown, but again, can't find /dev/sdb1

/boot/loader/enties/arch.conf is

title Arch Linux NVIDIA
linux /vmlinuz-linux
options initrd=/intel-ucode.img initrd=/initramfs-linux.img root=/dev/sdb1 rw

I dont have  UEFI security enabled, I tried pretty much everyting that was online but still no luck.

For most people the main solution was mkinitcpio -p linux, or sometimes fixing the hooks before that.

MY hooks part of mkinitcpio.conf are

"base udev autodetect modconf block filesystems keyboard fsck"

I just don't know what to do, why it is failing to find my root partition? Is that initramfs problem, can somehow debug trace be enabled?

Thanks
Vita

[edit]

the system is full updated, pacman -Syu returns nothing

[edit2]

the internal hdd has GPT partition table while m.2 disk has DOS partition table

[edit3]
TL;DR
Check the top filesystem directories,  if your filesystem has /lib /lib64 /bin and /sbin directories instead of symlinks, that might be causing some issues,

Mine arch installation had those directories for whatever reason.

Solution:
I just renamed them (for just in case) to and reinstalled filesystem package to get those symlinks working smile

mv /sbin /sbin.back
mv /bin /bin.back
mv /lib /lib.back
mv /lib64 /lib64.back
/usr/bin/busybox ln -s /usr/lib64 /lib64 # this one must be done manually as pacman does not work without /lib64
pacman -S filesystem

after this running mkinitcpio -p linux works as charm smile

That's not right, it should be:

title Arch Linux NVIDIA
linux /vmlinuz-linux
initrd /intel-ucode.img
initrd /initramfs-linux.img
options root=/dev/sdb1 rw

If that doesn't fix it, chroot into your system and post your fstab and the output of:

lsblk -f
# parted -l
# efibootmgr -v

Re: [SOLVED] strange problem with boot managers: unable to find root devic

I'm confused by the setup you have here. What was your initial installation process like? You said Windows came with the machine, are you dual-booting now, or did you replace windows? There is nothing in your fstab regarding /, so that is a problem. But, I'm not sure what you were booting into before this update...

Edit: Please explain what guide, guides, etc. you followed to install Arch.

Re: [SOLVED] strange problem with boot managers: unable to find root devic

The first drive (sda) is the original one, with windows and ESP partition. I've just created a data1 partition that is ext4  and has all mu music etc.. Windows is not deleted, it has its own boot manager that came with the machine.

sda1 and sda6 are some weird windows related partitions "Windows recovery environment"
while sda3 is "Microsoft reserved".


the other disk (sdb) has only one partition which is my root partition. The boot-loader from the first drive boots the root system that is on the second drive. Somehow it was working, I had a Grub loader that was working just fine big_smile

When I opened /etc/fstab to add my own data partitions, I was also puzzled by the lacking of / row in the /etc/fstab, but the system was fully running so I suspected it is some Arch thing.

I now added a row for / but it still does not work sad

this is what I've added

/dev/sdb1     /     defaults,noatime 0 1

I followed the beginners guide, but given that I had a gui installer, many of the things were much easier to do.

I had troubles with installing grub but after I while I managed to make it work.

Re: [SOLVED] strange problem with boot managers: unable to find root devic

Wait. What GUI installer? Those things might have seemed easier to do, but obviously they weren't done correctly. These forums do not offer support for GUI installers for precisely this reason. This unfortunately has been a waste of peoples' time because we have no idea what that installer might have done to your system.

Hopefully whoever made the installer has their own forums. Otherwise you should reinstall your system the right way.

Re: [SOLVED] strange problem with boot managers: unable to find root devic

I didn't have a CD at that time so I used this link
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/archboot and it seemed to me as a official iso release.

Is it possible to somehow manually intercept the boot process, to run commands by hand?

Re: [SOLVED] strange problem with boot managers: unable to find root devic

This was the GUI installer you mentioned? I thought you meant something entirely different, apologies.

If you didn't have a CD you could have used the regular Arch ISO on a USB stick. Is there a reason you used Archboot? I have never used Archboot myself.

Can you post your updated fstab please.

Re: [SOLVED] strange problem with boot managers: unable to find root devic

Well, ncurses is gui big_smile

I used archboot as this is the first thing I've found online and thought that was it, I never thought that there are several different install disks for arch smile
I actually used archboot from my usb and then the good thing was that it had fixed the wifi connection, otherwise I would be stuck smile

I now tried grub to enter commands manually, and when I enter set root=(<TAB> , it shows the list of my drives and it is finding both drives. I just don't get why initramfs is not seeing my /dev/sdb1 drive. I was worried that for some reason both grub and gummiboot are not seeing m.2 disk

I'm pretty sure now the issue is with initramfs somewhere, but just can't figure it why sad

Thank you very much for your help and effort!

Re: [SOLVED] strange problem with boot managers: unable to find root devic

I remain a bit confused and I confess I skimmed through this rather quickly.   The initrd and the kernel should be on the same partition that GRUB is on.   
I have not had the pleasure of working on an EFI system as yet, but it sounds as if the EFI mechanism is chainloading GRUB.  Perhaps you mounted the wrong partition on /boot when you upgraded.

Re: [SOLVED] strange problem with boot managers: unable to find root devic

HI,

No that is OK, initrd and kernel are on the ESP partition together with grub/gummiboot, the issue that the root partition is on the other drive and it can't be found sad

Can you post what your root likes like,

Re: [SOLVED] strange problem with boot managers: unable to find root devic

OMG, I finally managed it to work. I downloaded all my old packages kernel 3.17.6.-1 and it somehow works???
(I used 2014/12/27 packages from ARM repos). I just had to downgrade couple of modules, but after that i just run mkinitcpio -p linux and rebooted and it works as it did 12 hours ago before this agony started.

For some reason, this new kernel is not working for me. I don't know what is the catch sad
Before downgrading I tried to use testing repos, but the problem is that than building initramfs fails as my runing arch cd is stable and breaks

Re: [SOLVED] strange problem with boot managers: unable to find root devic

If grub is used to boot, check whether is pointing to the right partition.
Please post 

grep -iE '^\s+linux.*' /boot/grub/grub.cfg # [1]
$ ls /dev/disk/by-uuid

[1] The path should point to the ESP and where the file resides.

do it good first, it will be faster than do it twice the saint wink

Re: [SOLVED] strange problem with boot managers: unable to find root devic

Now, when I have a running system, I was thinking of trying to enable testing repos and then do pacman -Syu, would that work?

Here is the command output. That "c978..." is /dev/sdb1

Actually, now I booted with gummiboot, but before I used grub and both had the same problem.

Re: [SOLVED] strange problem with boot managers: unable to find root devic

So your /boot/loader/entries/arch.conf, might be like this.

title	Arch Linux
linux	/vmlinuz-linux
initrd	/intel-ucode.img
initrd	/initramfs-linux.img
options root=LABEL ssd rw

Some time the kernel name are messed up. This doesn't happen with UUID or labels.

Re: [SOLVED] strange problem with boot managers: unable to find root devic

Changing to LABEL=ssd  works, now I tried to update to testing kernel and the update failed as /lib/modules/3.19.1-1-ARCH was not a valid modules directory.

And indeed, modules for 3.19 kernel are placed below /usr/lib, not /lib... now after reboot the same problem appears, but before that a message

Warning: /lib/modules/3.19.1-1-ARCH/modules.devname not found - ignoring

and then the same problem with not finding the drive. I've change to LABEL=ssd, and it did work for 3.17, so gummiboot configuration is 100% correct smile

What is particularly interesting is that modules for 3.17 are in /lib and not in /usr/lib

as if some switch from /lib to /usr/lib occured which is causing me troubles

OK, one thing is suspicious. Should /lib be a symlink to /usr/lib?

according to https://www.archlinux.org/news/the-lib- … a-symlink/, the switch happened in 2012, but somehow my install from dec 2014 has it as a normal dir. I have multilib enabled (I think it is because of skype or viber or some other program like that)

Re: [SOLVED] strange problem with boot managers: unable to find root devic

Yes, there is some issue with my /lib directory. It is not a symlink to /usr/lib and if I install any kernel headers, new modules are put into /usr/lib/modules, and building modules fails. After I restart, it still fails, and I have to copy them into /lib/modules and then it works. Now, I've installed 3.19.1 kernel, but I'm not sure how to fix this weird problem with /lib directory.

Any ideas?

Thanks a lot for help!

Which command did you use to generate your initramfs?

What is the content of /etc/mkinitcpio.conf?

Also, your root filesystem is messed up -- /sbin & /bin should be symlinked to /usr/bin

You could try re-installing the filesystem package:

# pacman -Syu filesystem

Are you infected with Wetiko?

Re: [SOLVED] strange problem with boot managers: unable to find root devic

the default, I did not touch anything there

# vim:set ft=sh
# MODULES
# The following modules are loaded before any boot hooks are
# run.  Advanced users may wish to specify all system modules
# in this array.  For instance:
#     MODULES="piix ide_disk reiserfs"
MODULES="nouveau ext4 vfat"

# BINARIES
# This setting includes any additional binaries a given user may
# wish into the CPIO image.  This is run last, so it may be used to
# override the actual binaries included by a given hook
# BINARIES are dependency parsed, so you may safely ignore libraries
BINARIES=""

# FILES
# This setting is similar to BINARIES above, however, files are added
# as-is and are not parsed in any way.  This is useful for config files.
FILES=""

# HOOKS
# This is the most important setting in this file.  The HOOKS control the
# modules and scripts added to the image, and what happens at boot time.
# Order is important, and it is recommended that you do not change the
# order in which HOOKS are added.  Run 'mkinitcpio -H <hook name>' for
# help on a given hook.
# 'base' is _required_ unless you know precisely what you are doing.
# 'udev' is _required_ in order to automatically load modules
# 'filesystems' is _required_ unless you specify your fs modules in MODULES
# Examples:
##   This setup specifies all modules in the MODULES setting above.
##   No raid, lvm2, or encrypted root is needed.
#    HOOKS="base"
#
##   This setup will autodetect all modules for your system and should
##   work as a sane default
#    HOOKS="base udev autodetect block filesystems"
#
##   This setup will generate a 'full' image which supports most systems.
##   No autodetection is done.
#    HOOKS="base udev block filesystems"
#
##   This setup assembles a pata mdadm array with an encrypted root FS.
##   Note: See 'mkinitcpio -H mdadm' for more information on raid devices.
#    HOOKS="base udev block mdadm encrypt filesystems"
#
##   This setup loads an lvm2 volume group on a usb device.
#    HOOKS="base udev block lvm2 filesystems"
#
##   NOTE: If you have /usr on a separate partition, you MUST include the
#    usr, fsck and shutdown hooks.
HOOKS="base udev autodetect modconf block filesystems keyboard fsck"

# COMPRESSION
# Use this to compress the initramfs image. By default, gzip compression
# is used. Use 'cat' to create an uncompressed image.
#COMPRESSION="gzip"
#COMPRESSION="bzip2"
#COMPRESSION="lzma"
#COMPRESSION="xz"
#COMPRESSION="lzop"
#COMPRESSION="lz4"

# COMPRESSION_OPTIONS
# Additional options for the compressor
#COMPRESSION_OPTIONS=""

the problem is definitely with /lib and /usr/lib. I will try to fix this, but I'm not sure is there a way to check the integrity of all installed packages, as I'm not sure how this happened sad

Re: [SOLVED] strange problem with boot managers: unable to find root devic

Finally, everything works as expected. For some reason, I had /bin /lib /lib74 /sbin and other deprecated directories all full of files. That was the cause of the problems. I've run diff for /lib64 and /usr/lib64 and nothing is misisng and also for /lib and /usr/lib, couple of libs were missing from some samba package.  reinstalling filesystem to make symlinks and now everything as charm smile

Thanks a lot! marking it as solved
