Upgrade Blocked

[ubfan1]

Careful, there's an example fstab posted which confused me awhile. I thought the blkid and fstab were different, but comparing the correct fstab, they are the same.

Bashing-om,
Yes, verifying typo. Once again, the full error message when I try to boot, after a long pause:

Gave up waiting for suspend/resume device
Gave up waiting for foot file system device. Common problems:
-Boot args (cat /proc/cmdline)
-Check rootdelay= (did the system wait long enough)
-Missing modules (cat /proc/modules; ls/dev)
ALERT! UUID=6496c978-c968-4bdf-8a40-f3b3f0b0233b does not exist. Dropping to a shell!

BusyBox v1.30.1 (Ubuntu1:1.30.1-7ubuntu3.1) built in shell (ash)
Enter 'help' for a list of built in commands.

(initramfs)

Once this happens, if I force it to power off, and then try to boot, it will come up with a menu where I can choose a recovery mode that gets me started, sort of. When I power that off and boot again, I get the error message above once more. I have to hand copy and type that error message, so typo still possible, but I checked pretty carefully. It is the same UUID

Next?
Yours gratefully and hopefully,

CowDoctor Well ---

As there is:

Gave up waiting for suspend/resume device

And we have confirmed that UUID does exist!

Makes me wonder -
It has been way long since last I looked about "resume"; and maybe a lot has changed since then -
But >
Do these files exist ?

ls -al /etc/uswsusp.conf
ls -al /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/resume

Gots to be a reason

[CowDoctor]

[code]
joe@Bucky:~$ ls -al /etc/uswsusp.conf
ls: cannot access '/etc/uswsusp.conf': No such file or directory
joe@Bucky:~$ ls -al /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/resume
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root root 49 Oct 30 2018 /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/resume
joe@Bucky:~$ ^C
[code/]
Hmmmmm?
joe@Bucky:~$

[Bashing-om]

CowDoctor - so

What URL is defined ?

cat /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/resume

maybe this - might be other

[CowDoctor]

joe@Bucky:~$ cat /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/resume
RESUME=UUID=748c985b-1fe1-4dac-9dae-b3b8190a8652
joe@Bucky:~$

[CowDoctor]

?

[ubfan1]

Any other files in /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d besides the resume file? See https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2401012

[CowDoctor]

Thank you, ubfan1. I got the general idea from that thread, but am inexperienced enough (very) that I don't know how to check for another file. Can you help, please?
Yours apologetically,
Joe

So I changed to that directory (cd /etc/...) and used a "dir" command and got "RESUME" as the only answer. Would that be the process?
