This is probably an unusual use-case, but I'm trying to install Linux Mint (22.1, XFCE 64-bit) to an SD card on a 2012 Macbook Pro with a broken (completely unrecognised by the system) HDD. I know running an OS off an SD card is silly, but I want to try it. The live USB of Mint runs really well, and the installation appears to go perfectly, but after restarting (when the installer tells me to) and trying to boot from the SD card it boots to Busybox.
Here's the error I get after using the exit command:
Does anyone know why?
Here's the error I get after using the exit command:
Code:
BusyBox v1.36.1 (Ubuntu 1:1.36.1-6ubuntu3.1) built-in shell (ash)
Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands.
(initramfs) exit
Gave up waiting for root file system device. Common problems:
- Boot args (cat /proc/cmdline)
- Check rootdelay= (did the system wait long enough?)
- Hissing modules (cat /proc/modules: is /dev)
ALERT! UUID=355a0464-8ba6-41b9-84f1-5c4dd25c1092 does not exist. Dropping to a shell!
Does anyone know why?
