24.1 Production Series / [Solved] Restoring config - boot failure
« on: May 03, 2024, 09:38:47 am »
I'm trying to restore the config from my live system into a VM and whenever I do this I'm hitting an issue.
The VM is working fine and is at the exact same release level as the live system.
The restore works as expected, and the system automatically reboots. Everything looks to be in order.
But if I then power off and re-start, after the system boots I get dropped to a mountroot prompt.
Issuing "?" at the mountroot prompt lists no devices.
I don't know how to debug this, any help would be appreciated please...
I can re-create this behaviour every time by reverting the VM using a snapshot.
