blackwaterhey guys, I've been scratching my head all day trying to boot into my mate installation19:00
ouroumov_hi blackwater19:00
blackwaterI have Ubuntu Mate 16.04 installed with LUKS/LVM encryption, nvidia drivers for GTX 96019:01
blackwaterIt's been working fine, haven't changed anything19:01
blackwaterThis morning, when booting, instead of asking for crypt passphrase, it just shows black screen with blinking cursor19:01
blackwaterso I reboot, highlight the grub entry, edit it with 'e', change to no splash19:02
blackwaterit's stuck on 'begin: running /scripts/init-premount'19:02
blackwaterI mess around with fstab, trying unplugging all drives except boot, no change19:03
blackwaterif I boot into recovery mode and resume I can boot but graphics/window manager (compiz) doesn't work (no window borders)19:03
Akuliif you add init=/bin/bash to your grub line starting with linux do you get a bash prompt?19:03
Akuli(yes, i know, bash as init is crazy)19:04
blackwaterHaven't tried that yet, I will here in a moment19:04
blackwaterIt's a very complicated issue because it could be any combination of a broken update that I'm not aware of, an improper shutdown or even the machine being physically moved/bumped in the car19:04
blackwaterbasically I have this issue where on shutdown, all panels and windows revert to a 'default' gray  and it would sometimes hang or take too long to shutdown, so I would press the power button again19:05
blackwaterKeep in mind I'm not holding the power button, I just press it once, then I see a splash message about some error and then it shutsdown19:06
Akulibut you get to grub?19:06
blackwaterYes19:06
Akulioh nevermind :)19:06
* Akuli just read the scrollback19:06
blackwateralso, I can boot into an older kernel but then I don't have the nvidia drivers loaded19:07
Akulihmm19:07
Akulithen init=/bin/bash is more than we need19:07
blackwaterbasically, for whatever reason, my machine wouldn't shutdown properly. the panels revert to this old windows grey look and sometimes get stuck there, so I would press the power button again once and it would speed it up19:07
ouroumov_blackwater, that default theme fallback is a known issue, several people affected (inc me) on the forums19:08
blackwaterso I think I may have an improper shutdown that corrupted the filesystem19:08
ouroumov_blackwater, that said it doesn't usually hang for too long19:08
blackwaterproblem is i cant figure out how to fsck my drive since it's a LUKS/crypt drive19:08
blackwaterI've tried boot into recovery root shell and fsck /dev/mapper/ubuntu-mate--vg-root, says clean19:09
blackwaterbut anyway, now I'm stuck. Been scratching my head all day19:09
blackwaterI can boot old kernel but no nvidia drivers, I can boot current kernel in recovery mode but have graphics/compiz issues, and I can't normal boot into current kernel19:10
blackwaterso I'm confused as to whether it's a kernel, graphics or filesystem issue19:11
blackwaterouroumov_: what is the cause of the panel/theme fallback?19:11
blackwaterAkuli: I can't init=/bin/bash because it gets stuck on the same line 'Begin: Running /scripts/init-premount'19:13
Akulithat's weird, you can't even get to init19:14
ouroumov_blackwater, not sure: https://ubuntu-mate.community/t/dont-fallback-to-raleigh-theme-when-starting-up-shutting-down/927619:14
blackwaterif it's worth anything, if I boot into recovery, /scripts/init-premount success (echos 'done')19:14
TwoNotesIs there a way to encrypt my Home directory, or even all of /home, that does *not* create a backup copy?  (I lack the space for that)21:32
