I used mgaonline to successfully upgrade from Mageia 3 to Mageia 4. After the upgrade completed I was told to reboot. i did so, chose the Mageia 4 kernel, but ended up dropping down to a command line prompt. The messages said:

Code: Select all

dracut Warning: Cancelling resume operation. Device not found.
dracut Warning: Could not boot.
dracut Warning: /dev/resume does not exist.
Generating "/run/initramfs/rdsosreport.txt"


I have of course a backup of Mageia 3 I can restore before I try again.

Where do I go from here in attempting to upgrade from Mageia 3 to Mageia 4 and finding out why it is not successful ?

Check this thread: viewtopic.php?p=43348#p43348 and the linked bug report https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12305

That was the problem. Thanks ! Once I changed the resume to the UUID of the swap drive I had no trouble booting to Mageia 4 successfully.
