Hi Everyone,
Last night I was upgrading Ubuntu as I was still using the 10.04 version.
While updating (about halfway) to 10.10, my laptop froze and I had to force a shut down.
When I tried to reboot, ubuntu wouldnt start up and I was left in the command prompt with the following message:
Gave up waiting for root device. Common problems:
- Bott 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; Is /dev)
ALERT! /dev/disk/by-uuid/44aa0716-ec-4fd1-97e4-6229b178574c does not exist. Dropping to a shell!
BusyBox v1.13.3 (Ubuntu 1:1.13.3-1ubuntu11_ built-in shell (ash)
Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands.
(initramfs)
PLEASE HELP ANYONE!!! I am without a computer and have no idea what to do.
Thanks
