Resolution
Workaround
Before continuing, take snapshot of the virtual machine.
- Reboot the appliance.
- After the reboot, the console will fail in the system checks, and the maintenance prompt will appear.
- Press Enter to enter maintenance mode and run the following commands:
:/# /bin/sh :/# /bin/mount :/# lsblk
- You will get the list of the disks as shown in the screenshot below, Check the root disk and probably it will be the sda3 (size: 99.8 G):
- Use the following command to force fsck fix since the -y is given.
:/# e2fsck -y /dev/sda3
- Shutdown and then restart the appliance.
