=== MaNL is now known as MaNI [06:19] bushtech: https://askubuntu.com/questions/88384/how-can-i-repair-grub-how-to-get-ubuntu-back-after-installing-windows/88432#88432 [06:20] I know you didn't do anything windows-related like in the question, but the steps to fix a busted boot process are the same [06:20] also, good morning everyone :-) [06:36] thatgraemeguy: Thanks for that, I'll have a look. I suspect a kernel problem but what do I know;) [07:46] This server on bootup goes through the mb welcome screen, flashes up grub and after that nothing. If I access the grub screen on bootup and go to advanced I see versions 4.4.0-81 to 4.4.0-83 available. But none of them will let me boot up. Have gone into recovery mode but I cant get internet access there to do some updates or whatever. So basically snookered now [08:36] When running dpkg in recovery mode it wants to install the following: libmircommon 7, libmircore1, libmirplatform15, mir-platform-graphics-mesa-kms12 mir-platform-graphics-mesa-x12 mir-platforminput-evdev6 and upgrade coreutils libmirclient9 mir-client-platform mesa-graphics-drivers-desktop [08:37] so presumably I need to get internet access in recovery mode so that I can install/upgrade [08:40] ok semi sorted [08:41] looks like it got internet access and booted through [08:44] will have to see if it survives a reboot after all the update/upgades [09:22] grr! failed restart again. In recovery mode theres some scrolling text and one of them states it failed to load start kernel modules === qwebirc82505 is now known as antonza [11:07] wazzup all [11:09] If anybody knows of someone looking for a job in Randburg let them know we are looking. Must have knowledge in python, php, mysql, linux and a brain. Will also send a mail out to the distribution group. [11:29] guten tag [16:50] bwahaha, "and a brain" [19:15] good evening [19:16] hmm... [19:16] * inetpro wonder how bushtech is doing with his challenge of the day [19:17] or was that yesterday even [19:19] Good evening [19:56] bushtech: welcome back [19:56] oh and hi sakhi [19:56] bushtech: am glad to see you surviving [20:43] Hi inetpro [20:44] just trying a manual reboot again and it seems to be hanging on amanual [20:45] a manual mount I have for one of the computers this server is meant to back up [20:52] dang! took 14 min to reboot and then failed to come up again
