You are in emergency mode error on boot
by Lolliprop from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5EM9Z)
Hello guys, i was trying to dual boot both windows(windows 10) and linux(elementary os), starting from linux. I downloaded the .iso file from the microsoft site, then made a bootable usb following some tutorials. I also made the following partitions:
/dev/sda3 (linux swap)
/dev/sda6 (for windows, but deleted it eventually trying to fix this problem)
But when i rebooted my computer, the grub menu showed as planned, but only contained the following:
Elementary
Advanced options for elementary
Here a thing to open bios that i cant traduce well to english
And it doesn't show anything else!
I have legacy boot enabled, secure boot and fast boot disabled, and i selected an option that says prioritize legacy boots first over uefi. I can see the boot usb from bios, and i put it on top of the legacy boot list, but I can't see it in the grub menu.
The big problem is that when i click elementary in the grub menu, it opens the console and said the following:
You are in emergency mode. After logging in, type journalctl -xb" to view system logs, systemctl reboot" to reboot, systemctl default" or exit" to boot into default mode.
Press enter for maintenance(to access commands)
(or press ctrl-d to continue)
I tried everything, watched a lot of tutorials and read a lot of other forums but none of them worked.
I'm now stuck with this black screen terminal thing when i try to access my computer and i'm losing hope fast.
Thanks to anyone that tries to help :)
