Hi all,
I'm busy with an upgrade from Wheezy to Jessie. I didn't had any issue during the upgrade so far, but I cannot boot into the new kernel (3.16.0-4-amd64).
When booting I get the following output: give up waiting for root device ...
I can still boot into the old kernel (3.2.0-4-amd64).
What I did so far:
* Reinstalled kernel image 3.16.0-4
* Reinstalled grub in MBR
* checked UUID of boot partition in grub
* in the command line of grub I can access the boot partition (using ls hd(0,1) ). Vmlinux and initrd.img are available.
* Added delay in grub settings
So far no result, all things I'v been trying end up in the "give up waiting for root device" error.
This is how the partition table is looking like:
Device Boot Start End Sectors Size Id Type
/dev/sda1 2048 121636863 121634816 58G 83 Linux
/dev/sda2 164270080 167772159 3502080 1.7G 5 Extended
/dev/sda3 121636864 164270079 42633216 20.3G 83 Linux
/dev/sda5 164274176 167772159 3497984 1.7G 82 Linux swap / Solaris
output blkid:

Any idea how to solve this?
