Hi All,
You may be able to see from a few of my other threads, but I had started to build a server for small business use (18.04 on HP MicroServer Box). After it being shelved for a little while, I went back to trying to get it setup and running, but soon discovered a problem....... it doesn't boot properly anymore. I'm suspecting this to be down to lack of maintenance and a power cut.
If i let it run, I end up at a busybox prompt.
I've googled and tried to fix from there, but 'fsck' or 'e2fsck' isn't found. I've managed to load grub, but various attempts from there did nothing. I tried a live usb, with boot repair installed. but a multitude of error messages e.g. system in legacy boot, run from uefi..... hindered any progress there. The only useful piece of information i could deduce was that my 250GB SSD (where OS should be) came up as an unknown file system, which i assume means that it's not mounted anymore.
I will keep having an attempt at trying to fix it, obviously an OS reinstall is an option but the last option, but I thought I'd post on here and ask if anyone can see something obvious?
Many thanks in advance
