Device now tries to boot from different partitions of grubless partitions

General system Kernel & Hardware
#1

Hello Everyone.


Few days ago, I had made a similar thread :

Though, at that moment the idea fixed the issue, but now device tries to boot from different partitions of HDD.

Now, the thing had got strange lately. Since my root partition is on sdb1 and HDD is labelled as sda1, but at current boot, they are labelled as sdc1 and sdd1. And this happened when device tried to boot up first from Grub-less sda1.
After reboot, label becomes normal.

I tried to save the logs of emergency mode, but it returned some long code and told it is truncated.
Nor I was able to use eos-sendlog. What should be my steps to fix this ?

Are you using UUIDs in your fstab?

#3

Yes.

How are you posting these images? Normally you can click on them and they expand. These are not. Are you uploading an image from your computer?

#5

Yes

Wait,
I will share it in terminal format.

Well they aren’t working like usual? :thinking:

#8

And sudo blkid output?

#9

They work normal, but the frequency of irregular boot sequence had increased after the previous thread.

#10

He means images are strange, really small.

#11

Irregular labels.

Though those are screenshot taken by spectacle.

#13

No i meant the image. Anyway i see you have 0 1 on the first entry and 0 2 on the rest?

#14

Those are strange for me as well. But I don’t know how they were written up.

Also, by root partition is sdb1, and all sda(s) are HDD.

#15

I got that, that’s because I copy-pasted that.

#16

sdb doesn’t show up, your root partition is sdd1?

#17

That’s what the error is. After I will reboot, it will again be labelled as sdb1.

#18

Is this UEFI or legacy boot?

#19

It should be legacy boot I guess, as my PC is of 2010-11.

#20

I had restarted device, in order to show you the changes.
