[BlueOnyx:25686] Re: System fails to start after kernel update last night. <SOLVED>

Guess what?


Attached the missing USB disk /dev/sde.... and it restarts.
Strange though the system panics because of a missing non essential device. Lesson learned.

Few errors from journalctl -xb:
interface rename errors for eth3 and eth1
/sbin/mdadm -I /dev/sdc failed with exit code 1 (sdc and sdd are backup disks, not OS disks)
dev-sde2.device: job /start timed out (missing USB-disk)

no other errors......

I'm lost here.

Subject: [BlueOnyx:25684] System fails to start after kernel update last night.

Hi all,

this morning the kernel of my almalinux system was updated to vmlinuz-4.18.0-425.3.1. And then it rebooted in rescue mode. I tried both old kernels and still it reboots into rescue mode.
When I use grubby to see the kernel index I also get a grub-editenv: error: cannot rename the file /boot/grub2/grubenv.new to /boot/grub/grubenv (no such file or directory)

  1.  IS this error related to the boot failure?
  2.  What can I do to get the system up and running again?

Until the kernel update it was working fine, even when rebooting.

Cheers,

Arie
