** Description changed: On the first boot after updating 8.04.1 to 8.10 the system will no longer boot. Gave up waiting for root device. Common problems: -Boot 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; ls /dev) ALERT! /dev/disk/by-uuid/8e6f36d5-a1c6-44f6-8697-9a5954b280af does not exist. Dr opping to a shell! 8.04.1 was a clean install. I have 4 harddrives in my system and Ubuntu is installed on disk 1 (Vista on disk 0. 2 and 3 are data and backup). + + Edit: + After some musking around i found that it was an issue with the changes done to the GRUB menu when the system was updated, sadly stuff like this seams to happen each time GRUB is updated for some reason. But this was the most severe case.
