I am running GNU GRUB Version 2.02 on my MSI GL62M 7REX which has an intel CORE i7 processor and a GeForce GTX 1050 Ti graphics card.

I am using GNU GRUB Version 2.02 in order to be able to boot (unfortunately outdated) Ubuntu 18.10 or Windows 10 Professional, 64 bit.

Yesterday, Windows 10 did some updates and upgrades whereby it manipulated some BIOS configurations. Today, I wanted to start Ubuntu 18.10 which I wanted to upgrade to Ubuntu 19.10, but it failed to boot. This was my error message:

You are in emergency mode. After logging in, type "journalctl -xb" to view
system logs, "systemctl reboot" to reboot, "system default" or "exit"
to boot into default mode.

I do not know why it shows the error message three/two times. After that, the following option shows up:

Press Enter for maintenance
(or press Ctrl+D to continue):

If I press Enter, I can type system default or exit but I end up at the same spot. systemctl reboot will just reboot the system so that I end up at the same spot again. Pressing Ctrl+D does not seem to do anything and ends up throwing me at the very same spot.

I also took a look at this post but it did not help me. What can I do?

  • Have you updated UEFI, and if SSD, the firmware for the SSD? Is nVidia driver installed. Is nVidia driver installed? or using nomodeset boot parameter?

  • As you can see, I was able to fix the ACPI BIOS Error (bug) and wanted to reinstall the nvidia-driver-390 after that. Ubuntu, however, cannot connect itself to the internet via Ethernet or WiFi. I have found this possible solution but my BIOS seems to look very different. Do you know what I can do to enable Secondary LAN on my computer? – Incognito Nov 11 '19 at 12:04
  • This is how my BIOS looks like: Main, Advanced, Boot, Security – Incognito Nov 11 '19 at 12:04
  • Missed that it was 18.10 which has reached EOL. - end of life. Use a current version of Ubuntu. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases – oldfred Nov 11 '19 at 14:34

I was able to solve the ACPI BIOS Error (bug) by opening the editor when Ubuntu was selected in GNU GRUB Version 2.02 by pressing e. There, I removed acpi_osi= and the error was gone.

Now, however, another error occured regarding systemd.
