Cannot mount xfs root partition with kernel 4.19 or later #59384
Comments
Do the UUID's in your configuration correspond to the output of |
Yes. Actually, I mount the partitions by-label, but changed temporary to UUID in order to figure out which one of the generated fstab files is used. The issue originally appeared with the by-label setup. |
Do the filesystems also fail to mount when attempting to mount with UUIDs? |
Thanks for your answer. I can only try with 18.09. No problems here mounting the root partition by label or UUID. |
Unfortunately it's going to be rather challenging to troubleshoot the issue if you cannot reproduce it. You may have to do some digging to find additional information we can work with. |
@emmanuelrosa, I think you misunderstood. The issue is perfectly reproducible: As soon as I switch to 19.03 my system will not boot anymore. Because I simply cannot try to mount a partition on a system that is not bootable, I tested the correctness of the device files by using 18.09. And that works perfectly. But actually I made some progress: By switching back to kernel 4.14, my system can boot. |
The issue still persists and is also observable with kernel 5.1.8 installed using Any ideas how to investigate that? |
