    Question Reboot drops to grub shell after kernel update

    I've previously had this posted on askubuntu , but thought I found a solution that ended up not lasting. After an update with the kernel, on the next reboot, my grub just drops to the grub shell. This has happened numerous times in the past, which I only fixed by re-installing. I'm sick of re-installing, and want to find a solution to this issue. The latest time this has happened was today when my system updated to 5.0.0-17-generic kernel. I'm running Kubuntu 19.04 with all updates up to today, June 19th. Some of the information below I am copying and pasting as the info has not changed.

    Hardware:

    • AMD Ryzen 2600X
    • 16GB Ram
    • Asus B450 Motherboard
    • 1x Samsung Evo 500 GB SSD (Primary drive)
    • 1x Seagate 1TB HDD (Storage Drive)
    • No other OS's


    Manually entering the following at the grub screen allows my system to boot (obfuscated the UUID) and function normally:

    Code:
    > insmod gzio
    > insmod part_gpt
    > insmod btrfs
    > linux /@/boot/vmlinuz-5.0.0-15-generic root=UUID=0000000-000-000 ro rootflags=subvol=@ quiet splash
    > initrd /@/boot/initrd.img-5.0.0-15-generic
    > boot
    But, this is obviously annoying to have to do every reboot. I've checked my configuration files, everything looks fine, but it just seems like grub cannot read the configuration files for some reason.

    The UUID for my primary drive has been obfuscated below, but I did verify that it is accurate in my configuration files.

    /etc/fstab:

    Output of btrfs subvolume (though, this issue has plagued me since before I used btrfs):

    Code:
    :~$ sudo btrfs subvolume list /
    ID 256 gen 163835 top level 5 path @
    ID 258 gen 163835 top level 5 path @home
    ID 268 gen 163835 top level 5 path @var
    Any suggestions from anyone on what the issue could be, or what I could do to fix it? Other than using btrfs nowadays which this issue preceded, I don't do anything out of the ordinary that I know for. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Re: Reboot drops to grub shell after kernel update

    I suggest adding btrfs to title as not many know nor use BTRFS file system.
    It has unique issues.

    You may want to also run Boot-Repair's summary report as it gives more detail than the listings you posted. Not sure if it even works with BTRFS.
    May be best to see details, use ppa version with your live installer (2nd option) or any working install, not older Boot-Repair ISO:
    Please copy & paste link to the Boot-info summary report ( do not post report), the auto fix sometimes can create more issues.

    Thank you for your response. As I did say in my original post, this issue has existed for me since before I used btrfs, it's only one of the more recent re-installs that I decided to set my system up using that filesystem. Where it was a pre-existing issue, I didn't want to throw off the focus by mentioning btrfs in the title, but upon your suggestion, I have updated it.

    As per your suggestion, here is the output from boot-repair summary report (some lines have been edited due to visible passwords in fstab):

    =================== Suggested repair
    The default repair of the Boot-Repair utility would reinstall the grub-efi-amd64-signed of sda2, using the following options:        sda1/boot/efi,
    Additional repair would be performed: unhide-bootmenu-10s    use-standard-efi-file
    
    
    =================== Final advice in case of suggested repair
    Please do not forget to make your BIOS boot on sda1/efi/.../grub*.efi file!
    
    
    =================== User settings
    The settings chosen by the user will not act on the boot.

    Re: Reboot drops to grub shell after kernel update

    What brand/model system?
    What video card/chip?

    Have you updated UEFI from vendor to latest version?
    And updated SSD firmware?
    Samsung has a Linux a version of Magician for Linux it is not in the commercial links, but was in Enterprise. And I have not gotten it to work, but have not tried lately. It now says ISO can be used with DOS disk.

    All your entries are typical, but I thought drives had to be specified slightly differently with BTRFS?

    Do not run Boot-Repair fixes. You have separate /var partition. Boot-Repair auto mounts standard partitions / & /boot if one exists, but I do not think it adds any other folders that are partitions, so updates may not work.

    I only have ext4 on an older SSD Samsung 840, but like to see reviews like this.

    According to dmidecode, Version 1201 of firmware for Asus Prime B450M-A,

    According to Asus website, this is latest released May 10, 2019

    Not something I have thought of or looked into. But, I will check it out as I don't think I've done anything with the firmware on the SSD since I purchased it.

    What entries are you referring to? I have an almost identical drive layout on my laptop that has not exhibited this issue at all, at least I have something to compare to.

    Yeah, didn't plan on running boot-repair as I thought it wouldn't be safe in my configuration. Besides, it never fixed my problem previously when I had a standard EXT4 layout.

    Also, for a while, I was able to fix this issue in between updates by booting the system with manual grub commands at the beginning of my post to get into the installed system, and then execute the following:
    Code:
    # grub-install --target=x86_64-efi --efi-directory=/boot/efi --bootloader=ubuntu --recheck
    # update-grub
    # update-initramfs -u
    That worked for the last couple of kernel updates, but the latest one it no longer works for me for some reason.

    Re: Reboot drops to grub shell after kernel update

    Did not realize the sub volumes were in the parameters when I scrolled right.
    I was thinking that mounting with same UUID needed something more, but it is just in parameters.

    If it worked before, and you had to run the update-initramfs -u, that seems like a driver issue.
    Similar to those that load the nVidia driver from nVidia with the .run file. They have to re-run the update-initramfs -u with every kernel update to incorporate the driver, where if installed from Ubuntu repository it is automatically included.

    Do you have a btrfs driver and is it from Ubuntu repository or separately installed?

    Whatever came with Ubuntu. I set this filesystem layout during the Ubuntu installer.

    If this persists, I may just do a re-install again and just leave it at EXT4, but I don't think that's the issue as I've had this problem since before using BTRFS. I only switch on one of my numerous re-installs due to this.
