[Solved]Unable to boot /sbin/init does not exist.

When I boot, I get this message: ERROR: Root device mounted successfully, but /shin/init does not exist. This is an installation that was working fine for me before. I went into Windows to free up disk space, and when I booted Arch later, this is what came up. I have already tried using the live disk as a rescue, but I am unable to chroot into it. I have checked my partitions with a live disk and my files are still there. Is there any way that I can fix this without reinstalling Arch? I have a lot of things that I cannot reinstall right now as I don't have access to the internet currently, and I am using my phone to access the forum.

My bootloader is Syslinux. Yes, I am able to mount the file systems. The partitions are in ext4 format.  I boot from legacy BIOS, as I have had EFI problems in the past.  arch-chroot gives me this: ==> ERROR: failed to setup API filesystems in chroot /mnt. I should have been clear about what I did in Windows. I was running out of space in Windows, and I had some unallocated disk space, and so I extended my Windows partition.
The output of frisk -l is:

Sorry about the mess that is in. As a note, my / partition is #5, and my home is #9. Thank you for helping.

  • [SOLVED]Will not boot: "/sbin/init does not exist...

    There is another thread about this, but as of today (26-07-2013) it is 3 years old and Arch no longer uses sysvinit.
    (https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=93197)
    I tried re-installing systemd-sysvcompat, as that now handles /sbin/init, no luck.
    Is there some skeleton init file I could copy/regenerate from somewhere?
    NOTE: This is a new installation. Haven't booted cleanly yet

    Any chance you have more than one drive attached?  There are  no guarantees as to which drive is mapped to sda and which is mapped to sdb.
    If not that, from the shell into which you get dumped, go look around and see that /sbin is a link to /usr/bin.
    You might also add an option to point at your init.   (/usr/bin/init)   It will make your option line look like:
    options        root=/dev/sda1 ro init=/usr/bin/init
    Also, ensure that /usr/bin/init is linked to systemd.  :
    /sbin/init -> ../lib/systemd/systemd
    I'll still wager that the filesystem upgrade went awry.

  • [SOLVED] after upgrade : /sbin/init does not exist. Bailing out, ...

    hi, after having upgraded today my archlinux, I cannot boot it. I get the following message : "ERROR: Root device mounted successfully, but /sbin/init does not exist. Bailing out, you are on you own. Good luck."
    The last time the system was upgraded was in june 2013, before the "Binaries move to /usr/bin requiring update intervention" advisory (https://www.archlinux.org/news/binaries … ervention/). So before upgrading I followed the instructions given in this article and was able to upgrade. But after reboot I got the error message I'm reporting here.
    Here is a copy  of the config I'm using to boot arch in grub:
    menuentry "Archlinux" {
            load_video
            set gfxpayload=keep
            insmod gzio
            insmod part_msdos

    This looks fine to me, but when /dev/sda1 is mounted at /new_root, none of the other devices are mounted....
    I don't know if this is what's causing the problem since /etc, and /usr are on separate partitions from root, but
    this would be the first time I get a problem dividing things this way (on ubuntu, mint, fedora, et cetera).
    So I tried:
    https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php … 3#p1283343
    I get "* is owned by filesystem 2013.05-2" for all three dirs from step three.
    None of the other steps have any effect....
    I also tried:
    https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=172943
    My /dev/sda1 mounts to new_root, so I don't think I'm having his problem.
    And:
    https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=166423
    I reinstalled systemd-sysvcompat, and I'm sure that's not my problem.
    Interestingly enough, /usr/lib/systemd/systemd is an elf file on my target hard disk.
    Is this an outdated issue or something? Or should /usr/lib/systemd/systemd be a text file?
    Thanks in advance for your help guys!

    I saw another thread saying that adding an entry there would help. I think it was "init=<something>".

    I'll not do the separate partitions then. Thanks. I'll check back if it works/doesn't-works.

  • [SOLVED] /sbin/init does not exist error on boot

    Hi all,
    Let me first say that Arch Linux is a great distribution and I couldn't be more happier with it! Thanks to everyone who is involved in building it.
    However, as the subject line suggests, I have run into a problem. I have tried every trick in my book and every suggestion on Google but the problem still persists.
    The setup
    * UEFI boot loader on /dev/sda1
    * BTRFS file system on /dev/sda2 in __active subvolume
    * The system was installed in Jan using the latest install CD (I presume systemd changes were already applied)
    The problem
    Booting halts on rEFInd screen
    What I have tried
    Since the last pacman command upgraded git and kernel to 3.7.6-1 (this is not the first kernel upgrade on this system)my first idea was to rollback to 3.7.5-1 which results in /sbin/init not found error.
    Re-installing 3.7.6-1 halts the system on rEFInd boot screen. I tried booting from rEFI shell and it results in the same /sbin/init not found error (on 3.7.6-1 kernel) so I presume that's the main issue here.
    From there on (as suggested by various posts online) I have verified that rEFInd points to the correct root partition. Also, I've tried passing /bin/systemd explicitly but the error still persists.
    I can boot into Live install environment and chroot into the setup on my drive. I have checked that /sbin/init exists (as well as /bin/systemd).
    I am out of options here. Any help will be much appreciated.
    Please let me know if you require any other information from me.

    OK, now that I have marked the __active subvolume as default I can boot (using EFI shell) without using the rootflags=subvol=__active kernel parameter.
    However, rEFInd boot loader is still not working (with or without rootflags=subvol=__active). Unfortunately I don't see any error messages as the system hangs at rEFInd boot screen.
    Here's my archlinux.nsh (that I use to boot through EFI shell):
    echo -on
    \EFI\arch\vmlinuz-arch.efi root=PARTUUID=626f545b-44f5-4a72-b1f3-d942fbcd0b46 ro rootfstype=btrfs add_efi_memmap systemd.unit=graphical.target initrd=\EFI\arch\initramfs-linux.img rootflags=subvol=__active
    Here's my refind_linux.conf from (/boot/efi/EFI/arch)
    "Boot with defaults" "root=PARTUUID=626f545b-44f5-4a72-b1f3-d942fbcd0b46 ro rootfstype=btrfs add_efi_memmap systemd.unit=graphical.target rootflags=subvol=__active"
    "Boot to terminal" "root=PARTUUID=626f545b-44f5-4a72-b1f3-d942fbcd0b46 ro rootfstype=btrfs add_efi_memmap systemd.unit=multi-user.target rootflags=subvol=__active"
    Any idea why booting through EFI shell would work but not through rEFInd?
    Is it worthwhile rebuilding /boot?

  • /sbin/init does not exist

    I followed steps on arch frontpage (I guess), but now my system can't boot. So i booted to newest arch cd and wanted to chroot to this installation and I can't.
    # arch-chroot /mnt
    chroot: failed to run command /bin/sh: No such file or directory
    Yea, I mounted correct partition. Well, removing these dirs in root folder was kinda point of this update, wasn't it? If they were supposed to symlink, it did not happen. So I tried to symlink it myself and I did it in a way I could chroot to this installation (read: "I somehow did it but I'm not sure if I did it correctly as I am noob"), but step "pacman -Su" still throws these kind of errors:
    "filesystem: /bin exists in filesystem"
    What now?

    this thread helped me to solve my problem, which was very  like the one described by OP.
    after the confusion with files in /sbin etc. this was already the second time upgrades did not work and i had made my system unbootable.
    i had created the mess myself, no need to go into that now.
    upgrading 'filesystem' through arch live 'cd' was the key.
    just 1 thing to add: when you boot into the live environment, make sure you connect to the internet first, i had problems with that once i had issued any kind of chroot command.
    but really i wanted to leave my mark here because:
    searching for answers, i read many threads about the current "/bin exists in filesystem" confusion, and they're quite full of sarcastic remarks and cryptic inside jokes, in a way i find off-putting.
    would it have been such a bad thing if i had started another thread on this, after trying for hours, days, making matters worse than better, daring to ask a question that marks me as less experienced? many hardcore forum posters' remarks surely made me feel like that.
    but, this thread is the positive example! all is not lost. thanks.

    your shareable memory area is not set for the oracle server. I think you install the server by using the command
    # echo 500m > /proc/sys/kernel/shmmax
    this command temporaryley increase the area not for permanent.
    so edit the file which is /etc/sysctl.conf and change this parameter "kernel.shmmax=536870912" and then reboot your system and start the oracle.
    If reboot is not an option the use this command to increase the required area.
    #echo 536870912 > /proc/sys/kernel/shmmax
    and then run the oracle.

  • [SOLVED] Unable to Boot Windows 7 from GRUB

    I recently reinstalled Arch onto my laptop (Lenovo Thinkpad t520) and have been having problems with Grub. For the last week I've been having trouble getting it to run grub at boot at all, only being able to run windows 7 by flagging it as the bootable drive. The other day I finally got it to boot into grub, and from grub I can boot into Arch. However, I can not boot into windows 7 through grub. When I attempt to, it throws an error:
    Invalid EFI file path
    I'm somewhat new to arch, and especially new to efi bootloading and such. Right now the only way I can get into windows is either booting from the arch install disk > boot other os and specifying partition 2 (where I have windows installed) or by pressing f12 at boot. When I do this (not sure what the term is, if anyone knows please tell me), it brings up a menu asking where I want to boot with "arch_efi" "cd drive" "Hard drive" etc. I choose hard drive and it will then boot to windows by default. Booting normally takes me to grub where I can boot into arch but not windows. If there's any more info you need please let me know and I'll try to provide it. Thanks in advance.
    Also, here is my current partition setup
    /dev/sda1 /boot/efi
    /dev/sda2 Windows7
    /dev/sda3 Extended partition containing sda 5,6, & 7
    /dev/sda4 swap
    /dev/sda5 /boot
    /dev/sda6 /
    /dev/sda7 /home
    UPDATE
    Terminator seems to be right (still on a roll!), so I wiped the partition I had grub on, removed grub, and installed syslinux. Now I have another problem that I'm hoping can be solved in the same thread to avoid another. It boots to syslinux no problem, and I can boot to windows from there all good, but when I select arch I get:
    Root device mounted successfully but /sbin/init does not exist
    I haven't been able to look for solutions too much on my own, but any help would be appreciated, thank you.

    Then, I boot from CD and changed root to try to mount  the existing partitions of my HD:

    But editing the kernel parameters as  stated in the link did not fix my  problem,  it just brought me back to the situation where it failed to mount the local filesystems
    I installed archlinux & KDE from scratch again . But performing a CLI shutdown   got me into the very same problem again ....
    I’ve revised the mkinitcpio.conf and I seem to have all the hooks (using the default config by the way). ¿Could be related to KDE?
    No idea how to proceed now.

  • SOLVED: Mounting IDE ZIP Drives, "Special Device hdb4 Does Not Exist"

    I thought I would post a follow-up, since I have finally resolved this long standing issue, which has plagued me since my first days with Linux many years ago.
    As outlined in my original post below, every time I would attempt to access a Zip disk for the first time since boot, Linux (pretty much all distros I have ever tried, with the exception of SuSE 9.3) would fail to mount the disk and report back that "Special device hdb4 does not exist". Of course the "hdb4" part varies from distro to distro and machine to machine, depending on how your Zip disk is connected and how the distro names its disks, but the basic error has been constant. I have always worked around it by redoing the mount command specifying just the device, not the partition, and while that would always fail, it would force the creation of the device /dev/hdb4, and I could carry on. Annoying but effective.
    FINALLY, a long term answer. I got my inspiration from a really snarky post I read in another online forum where someone had posted this very same question (this is a very common problem with no common answer it seems!). The respondant, who completely failed to provide a helpful answer, basically said "listen, the OS is telling you what is wrong - the device hdb4 doesn't exist - so fix it, and all will be just fine". Of course, the respondant didn't even bother to offer a suggestion about HOW to fix it.
    However, therein lies the inspiration for the solution. Indeed they are right, /dev/hdb4 *doesn't* exist, so how to fix that? They had a point. I started researching the mysteries of mknod, a program that can create /dev files, and the even deeper mysteries of Linux device numbers, both major and minor.
    In the end, I found a wonderfully informative document that described the current standard for the device numbering scheme used by mknod, and Linux in general. The key things of interest are this:
    1/ The major number for IDE based drives is 3.
    2/ IDE allows for 64 partitions per device, so the minor numbers are 0-63 for device "a", 64-127 for device "b" and so on. You derive the minor number of interest for your particular device by taking the starting value of the minor number range of interest for your device and adding the partition number to it. So, for example, hdb4 would have a minor number of 64 (the start of the minor number range for device "b") plus 4 (the partition number in "hdb4"), yielding a result of 68.
    3/ The major number for SCSI based drives, or those that your OS treats as SCSI, is 8.
    4/ SCSI allows for 16 partitions per device, so the minor numbers are 0-15 for device "a", 16-31 for device "b" and so on. You derive the minor number of interest for your particular device by taking the starting value of the minor number range of interest for your device and adding the partition number to it. So, for example, sdb4 would have a minor number of 16 (the start of the minor number range for device "b") plus 4 (the partition number in "hdb4"), yielding a result of 20.
    In my case, Arch seems to be treating all of my disk based devices as SCSI, perhaps because I do have a real SCSI interfaced Jaz drive in my machine. So, the Zip disk of interest in my machine is sdc4 (my real SCSI jaz is sda, my Arch root is sdb, and the IDE Zip is sdc). Applying the above, for /dev/sdc4:
    - The major number is 8.
    - The minor number is 32 (start of range for device "c") plus 4 (the partition number) = 36.
    Armed with this knowledge, I su'd to root and entered:
    # mknod /dev/sdc4 b 8 36
    and like magic, there is was, /dev/sdc4. I popped a disk into the drive and my first attempt to access it was greeted with success, not the usual "device does not exist" error! By the way, the "b" in the above command is just part of the mknod syntax, and indicates that I am creating a block device (vs. a character device, or some other type of device - disk drives all seem to be "block" devices for apparent reasons).
    SO, determine your major number by device type (it will usually be 3 or 8), compute your minor number by device letter and partition number, and add a mknod command to your system startup (so you don't have to do it manually every time) and you are done! No more annoying "device does not exist" errors.
    Now for the kicker. It turns out that this information has been available under my nose all along. I just didn't recognize the code. If you do the following:
    # ls -ald /dev/sd*
    Linux obligingly provides you with the major number and the start of the minor number range for your device. Since Linux has always detected the Zip *device* (just not the partition) this is really all you need to know. When I issue the above command, I get an output like:
    brw-rw----  1  root  disk  8,   32   date   time   /dev/sdc
    Guess what, there they are! "8" is the major number of interest, "32" is the start of the minor number range of interest. If I had just recognized that, and known that all I had to do was add the partition number to the minor number to get the magic number to feed into mknod, things would have been easier.
    Sorry for the long post, but like so many things in Linux, the OS doesn't make this easy on the uninitiated. I sincerely hope that this post may help lots of other people to resolve this vexing and longstanding problem.

    Solved!

  • [SOLVED] PowerDNS (pdns) - SQLite database '...' does not exist yet

    PowerDNS 3.2-5 is having some issues connecting to my backend database (sqlite3).
    beta powerdns # tail /var/log/errors.log
    May 7 20:12:41 localhost pdns[19098]: Caught an exception instantiating a backend: Unable to launch gsqlite3 connection: SQLite database '/etc/powerdns/database.sqlite' does not exist yet
    But when i do:
    beta powerdns # sqlite3 /etc/powerdns/database.sqlite
    SQLite version 3.7.16.2 2013-04-12 11:52:43
    Enter ".help" for instructions
    Enter SQL statements terminated with a ";"
    sqlite> select * from domains;
    1|<myhostname>|||NATIVE||
    sqlite>
    sqlite3 It fetches the records and domains to my liking but not PowerDNS.
    Same thing goes for a blank db without any domains or records, i can query it but not PowerDNS.
    Followed this guide in order to setup the proper tables and columns: http://doc.powerdns.com/html/gsqlite.html#idp9379264
    (without the DNSSEC part, i'll give that a go later on)
    It obviously loads the sqlite3 module, and tries to connect to the backend, which doesn't work, so the ArchLinux package is fine i'm guessing.
    More info:
    * Link to package: https://www.archlinux.org/packages/comm … 6_64/pdns/
    * chmod == 777
    * chown == nobody:nobody (and tried root:root as default)
    * running as root (not pdns)
    Last edited by Torxed (2013-05-08 10:52:05)

    Solved it.
    The guides are vague in this regard but once you've just read the config twice you'll understand the logic.
    First of all, no absolute paths for sqlite3, it should be:
    launch=gsqlite3
    gsqlite3-database=database.sqlite
    Secondly, find your chroot, and point it to your database location or put your database here (whichever):
    chroot=/var/empty
    The folder structure should be:
    /var/empty/database.sqlite
    And this py pointing to ./database.sqlite when starting sqlite3 in pdns, it should be able to lock on to the database.
    Peachy!

  • Boot image does not exist and cannot read disk label errors.

    Hi - I'm having a problem with installing Solaris 9 4/04 on a Netra T1. The Netra already has Solaris 7. I need to get this set up as a jumpstart server but it can't find the boot image. I'm using a brand new bonafide installation disk - not a copy. The system won't let me install/upgrade to Solaris 9 either. I get an error stating that disk label can't be read. I've tried swapping out the CDROM but I still get the same errors. Does anyone know what or why this may be happening? (Oh - and another strange thing - like I said the CDs are the original but there doesn't appear to be a cdrom/cdrom0/s0 directory. The directory I see is cdrom/cdrom0/sol_9_404_sparc/Solaris_9/Tools)
    ERROR: Install boot image /cdrom/sol_9_404_sparc/Solaris_9/Tools/Boot does not exist
    Check that boot image exists, or use [-t] to
    specify a valid boot image elsewhere.
    and
    Excuting last command: boot cdrom [- nowin]
    Boot device: /pci@1f,0/pc1@1/ide/cdrom@2:f file and args: [- nowin]

    Evaulating: boot cdrom [- nowin]@1/ide@e/cdrom@2:f File and args: [- nowin]

    I appreciate any help at all - is there anyone out there who can tell me what I may be doing wrong?
    Thanks

    Hi check that you are booting of the right cd. Make sure it is soalris 9 software 1/2 if that fails then it may well be that your cd is buggered. most likely it is buggered it it cant find the boot image.

  • [Solved] Error : The file or folder path /Probl?me 1 does not exist

    Hello,
    I encountered this error
    The file or folder <path>/Probl?me 2 does not exist
    while I was trying to open a directory already extracted from a zip file containing directories with special characters. In this case, it is a "è" that was misinterpreted as a "?".
    I searched the forums and on google, the solutions proposed do not work for me. Although, I have to deal with these files written in french, I would like to have my locale in english (US), with a system wide support for special characters.
    Attempt 1: Adding the option : iocharset=utf8 into the fstab, like this :
    fstab :
    # /etc/fstab: static file system information
    # <file system> <dir> <type> <options> <dump> <pass>

    /dev/fd0 /media/fl auto user,noauto 0 0
    /dev/disk/by-uuid/24ba75ac-e52d-40eb-a599-83b394b500b2 /boot ext2 defaults 0 2
    /dev/disk/by-uuid/c797f409-00bc-479a-b4d6-ab49943f644b / ext4 defaults 0 1
    /dev/disk/by-uuid/668427a8-5f51-42bd-a316-fc7984bf5f4f /var ext4 defaults 0 2
    /dev/sda7 swap swap defaults 0 0
    /dev/disk/by-uuid/417cd1b7-8f06-414b-84d5-e8714d9646ab /home ext4 defaults 0 2
    /dev/disk/by-uuid/ef9aa00e-0515-4d7b-aa23-8096e787250d /usr ext4 defaults 0 2
    /dev/disk/by-uuid/17d401b7-2fc7-4d9f-8e17-657d86926d2e /tmp ext4 defaults,iocharset=utf8 0 0 <<<<<<<<<<<<<<
    /dev/disk/by-uuid/71e543b6-e06c-4b0e-b1e3-3b491ff1fefe /var/cache/pacman/repos ext4 defaults 0 2
    #/dev/sda12 /mnt/archive ext4 defaults 0 2
    #.host:/ /mnt/hgfs vmhgfs defaults 0 0
    This solution does not work, because after adding iocharset=utf8, in front or after a "defaults", after a reboot, while mounting the filesystem, there is the following error message:
    Mounting Locale Filesystem :
    mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdb1,

    It is complicated to remove these directories. I had to use the inum to get precisely these directories before removing them.
    $ ls -il
    total 8
    1577566 drwxr-xr-x 2 [username] [username] 4096 28 jan 07:09 Probl?me 1
    1577573 drwxr-xr-x 2 [username] [username] 4096 28 jan 07:09 Probl?me 2
    $ find . -inum 1577566 -exec rm -i {} \;
    rm: impossible de supprimer « ./Probl\212me 1 »: est un dossier
    Note that the hypothetical character 'è' is represented has a '\212', a 'È' if seen as a extended ASCII character.
    These directories cannot be deleted this way :
    $ rm -r Problème\ 1
    rm: cannot remove `Problème 1': No such file or directory
    or
    $ rm -r ProblÈme\ 1
    rm: cannot remove `ProblÈme 1': No such file or directory
    What should I do to be make the operating system recognize those special character, and interpret them correctly ?

    I found a working solution, but better solution are also welcome
    I had to have fr_CA not only in utf8 but also in iso88591. I had to modify the /etc/rc.conf this way :
    LOCALE="fr_CA" <<<<<<<<<<<<<<
    HARDWARECLOCK=""
    TIMEZONE="America/Montreal"
    KEYMAP="us"
    CONSOLEFONT=
    CONSOLEMAP=
    USECOLOR="yes"
    To preserve the english US language system wide, I had to add the following line in the /etc/profile :
    # Allow french special character while in en_US
    export LANG=en_US
    The character misinterpreted by a "?" is now seen :
    as a "è" in dolphin
    as a "?" in the console
    It is now possible to access the folders.

  • Unable to login: SAP System Message: Dynpro does not exist

    Hello All,
    I'm created a test system to practice our upgrade post steps on.  I created a pared down copy of one of our other systems.  When I try to login, I get a popup message saying: Dynpro does not exist.
    To create the pared down version, we used empty files for:

    We don't think these being empty is the problem, but I wanted to mention it just incase it is. 
    Below is the dev_w0 log.  I've been searching Google / SDN / OSS for some of the errors but haven't come up with anything yet.
    Any insight you might have into this would be appreciated.  Thank you.
