[Bug 1475941] Re: Kernel panic - not syncing (clean 15.10 install)

 

I have a 64-bit System76 computer and this problem also affects me.  My
kernel is 3.19.0-22-generic. I am using factory-installed Ubuntu 15.04,
but I've been running updates regularly.

I can still boot my original 3.19.0-21-generic kernel just fine, and do
my work on that kernel without any problems.

Title:
  Kernel panic - not syncing (clean 15.10 install)

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I've just installed Kubuntu 15.10 and was able to boot into it once
  and update the kernel. Since then, everytime I try to boot into it I
  get the following error message:

  Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-
  block(0,0)

  There might be other error messages before but I cannot see them as
  they pass too fast, and the only messages I see are those shown in the
  attached picture.

  After some trial and error, I've discovered that this bug occurs when
  booting with the quiet option. When I remove it, the kernel boots fine
  most of the time (not everytime, but it's a definite improvement).

  What's happening and how do I prevent it?
