Having trouble booting up Ubuntu. The Grub appears on start up but it returns this error message when booting Ubuntu:

fra initranfs and switch to another root fs: chroot to NEW_ROOT, delete all in/, NEW-ROOT must be a mountpoint

I tried the Boot Repair Disk but it returned this error message at the end of the Boot Info Summary report:

sda1   rw,relatime,fmask=0022,dmask=0022,codepage=437,iocharset=iso8859-1,shortname=mixed,errors=remount-ro

===================== sda1/efi/ubuntu/grub.cfg (filtered) ======================


search.fs_uuid e782db0a-566b-4b1c-ac14-163d062c1a12 root hd0,gpt2 
set prefix=($root)'/boot/grub'
configfile $prefix/grub.cfg


Error code 32
mount -r /dev/sda2 /mnt/boot-sav/sda2


mount -r /dev/sda2 : Error code 32
Error code 32
mount -r /dev/sda2 /mnt/boot-sav/sda2


mount -r /dev/sda2 : Error code 32


Suggested repair: ______________________________________________________________


The default repair of the Boot-Repair utility would not act on the boot.

Any advice on where to go from here would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!

  • Post the link Boot-Repair creates to entire report. If necessary rerun it. You may need to run fsck on sda2 if that is ext4 / (root) partition. https://askubuntu.com/questions/642504/ubuntu-14-04-is-not-booting-normaly-after-a-manual-hard-boot/642789#642789 and then run the full reinstall of grub & a new kernel from Boot-Repair's advanced mode. – oldfred Dec 30 '21 at 16:11

  • Configuration does look normal. Did you try the e2fsck on sda2? – oldfred Dec 30 '21 at 20:50
  • Not yet. I'm somewhat of a newbie. How exactly do I do that? I can't access my dev/sda2 partition. Apparently it's no longer mounted. I tried a reinstall from DVD by using the "something else" option and specifying the sda2 mount as /. The last backup was taken 4 weeks ago and I would like to preserve the current files if possible. Unfortunatly, the re-install froze during the "saving files" process. It never got past that. – user1152823 Dec 30 '21 at 22:38
  • I figured out how and it worked! No need to re-install. :o) THANK YOU for your assistance!! – user1152823 Dec 30 '21 at 23:30
