Mageia forum

Hi!

My computer locked up and I pressed the powerbutton to get out of there.
No when booting I get this (attached image).

I can start the system normal with ctrl D.

Hey Pedro,

Seeing as you can boot normally with ctrl-D, it seems you can just try to exit emergency mode by typing "systemctl default"

From what I understand of it (and pls correct me if I'm wrong) the system shut down incorrectly (you had to press the power button to get out of the lockup) and therefor get's marked with an 'unclean shutdown'.
When booting mageia, it sees that there was an unclean shutdown and thus boots into emergency mode in order to fix possible issues.
Seeing as there is probably nothing wrong with the installation (seeing as you can continue with ctrl-d) you have to 'exit' emergency mode by booting back into default mode (by using the command "systemctl default").

Hopefully that makes sense.

Thank you!

I tried the "systemctl default" command, but still boots in emergency mode.

Then please boot it, then press Ctrl+D to boot normally and then later run the following command as root

Code: Select all

journalctl -ab > /tmp/journal.log

and then attach the resulting file /tmp/journal.log here.

journal.log attached

One of your partitions need a filesystem check. Boot to safe mode again, and then as root run

Code: Select all

fsck -y /dev/sda6

Thank You!

I did the the "fsck -y /dev/sda6" command and no everything is fine!
Had to find out how to unmount the partition first, to have the command run.

Unmounted the partition that needed a check:

Code: Select all

umount /dev/sda6

then run the:

Code: Select all

fsck -y /dev/sda6

Than you doctor doktor5000!

You're welcome
