As the title states, my system was running just fine and randomly rebooted at like 2am a few days ago. Since then the system will not load. The only thing I can go off of is the console during boot where it freeze’s and completely locks up. I’ve left it for 20+ hours seeing if it continues but it does not function beyond ix-etc and OCCASSIONALLY ix-zfs. I loaded the install ISO and went into shell, checked boot and additional ZFS pool’s and they have no issues.
Has anyone else seen this and have a fix besides wiping the boot, reinstalling and reimporting the old config?
“Job ix-etc.service/start running” is where it stops 9/10 reboot attempts. The 1/10 is ix-zfs.
Do you have previous Boot Environments to choose from the Grub menu?
Screenshot from my Goldeye Nightly VM. I can choose the previous versions upon booting.
unfortunately no, just the debug option for 24.10.0.2 which is the current and only version. It’s a fairly new box. I’m going to play around with mounting the boot pool in ubuntu live and see if I’m able to extract the config stuff or the like 2 files I need to keep and do a quick reconfig. Only thing I’m unsure of is the identity files for the storage node app storing the files in the default location - which I think is on the boot drive?
Interesting find after doing fresh install - when importing the previous config the issue still happens. Loaded the shell from install ISO and checked the ZFS pools. they’re all showing as healthy and SMART tests on the drives also checkout good. I’ll try manually importing the pool with another fresh install if I get time tomorrow.
Okay yeah this is either a bug or the ZFS pool was corrupted during normal operations somehow. I imported the pool via UI and nothing actually imported then imported via CLI having to force it and after reboot it is freezing again. Guess my storj account is going to get suspended for their system corruption my data pool.
