| Jun 24, 2016 at 7:57 | comment | added | MathematicalOrchid | @Gilles I'm pretty sure it's actually initramfs. Not sure if it actually makes a difference though; either way, I've got a mini filesystem and I need to mount the real filesystem. (OpenSUSE, in case it matters.) | |

Is it actually an initrd, or an initramfs? (Just because the file is called initrd doesn't mean that it's one: most distributions have switched to initramfs but keep calling the file initrd.) What distribution are you using (as what the initrd/initramfs does depends on what the distribution put there)?

@EricRenouf manually booting the full system may very well be the easiest way to fix such an issue. I had problems in the past where the initramfs failed to open my cryptsetup-luks encrypted root partition, and the easiest fix was to manually boot it and then run update-initramfs -u. I absolutely couldn't get it working when I just chrooted into the root filesystem from a rescue system; the resulting initramfs was always broken.
