I was given a virtual machine of Ubuntu 14 that would not boot and would display:
kernel panic not syncing vfs unable to mount root fs on unknown-block 0 0
After looking around, I figured I could try fixing it by booting into recovery mode and using boot-repair.
It did something which gave me a new error. It looks like it's booting but then it gets stuck at either:
Restoring solver state
or
stopping system v runlevel compatibility
I would like help on suggestions on how I can get it boot again. Note: I was told it's Ubuntu 14 and I have the root password. But it boots into Lubuntu.
Thanks in advance.
