I am having problems booting in Ubuntu. I went in Grub to the following screen

error

as you can see the last line is echo "ready". Well it got printed, then stop. My question is what comes after the execution of initrd /casper/initrd?

  • It looks like you are trying to do some hands-free installation with preseed file... can you elaborate (edit your question), what you are trying to accomplish and what you have done so far. E.g. the full line behind linux would be interesting – Simon Sudler Oct 21 '20 at 09:13
  • For debugging: remove quite and splash from the cmdline – Simon Sudler Oct 21 '20 at 09:15
  • removed already. Also put no splash. etc. The thing is after initrd /casper/initrd (and the echo) it stops – KansaiRobot Oct 21 '20 at 09:16

  • My question here is what comes next after these lines are executed? – KansaiRobot Oct 21 '20 at 09:18
  • Nothing... the configuration is fine. Kernel + Initram disk will boot your system – Simon Sudler Oct 21 '20 at 09:20
  • Sorry I don't understand your comment. Nothing comes next? After these are executed the process should go somewhere so that ubuntu gets booted right? I ask this to understand what is failing – KansaiRobot Oct 21 '20 at 09:22
  • remove the quite and splash, then you can see what is going on... it is possible, that the system boots and stops with some error message. The "initrd" and "ready" echos will be displayed by grub. They have nothing to do with the linux boot process. – Simon Sudler Oct 21 '20 at 10:06
  • That configuration appears to be from a live cd, not an installed Ubuntu. Don't you have some media booting instead of you drive? – schrodingerscatcuriosity Oct 21 '20 at 10:29
  • I am running from a USB drive with ubuntu – KansaiRobot Oct 21 '20 at 10:30
  • I managed to boot by removing quite and splash and adding acpi=off but now ubuntu does not recognize my hard drive :( – KansaiRobot Oct 21 '20 at 10:32
  • In Ubuntu Live USB only } comes after initrd /casper/initrd in other flavors or versions .lz has come after, ie initrd /casper/initrd.lz. In installed systems other things are possible such as initrd /boot/initrd.img-5.4.0-47-generic depending on the kernel. – C.S.Cameron Oct 21 '20 at 10:57
