Stuck on black screen at boot
Hi,
After doing an upgrade via ssh, my system was going (automatically) for a reboot. After that, it did not came back. I tried to restart it by disconnecting the power source, but I only get a black screen. The only problem I had, was that I had no free space left. So maybe something is corrupted. However, I think it is strange nothing happens (no logo, no text message) on boot. Because of the btrfs that is being used, I cannot use my Linux Mint install to investigate the problems, right? Do you got any clue what's going on and how I can solve it? I have a RPi 2. |

No free space during an upgrade can bork the system.

What can I do to restore my installation? Or at least to save my settings? Do you have any ideas? |

RE: Stuck on black screen at boot
One assumes you do not have a backup?
What does df-h show. Also try find {/path/to/directory} -type f -size +{10000}k -exec ls -lh {} \; | awk '{ print $8 ": " $5 }' You can try a btrfs-restore on the last snapshot, but I think the pull plug may have corrupted something. Can you ssh into the RPi? If so, run xbian-config and try an upgrade. Please read before you post How to post a log file If you liked my help, click on "Thanks" to show your appreciation.

It seems it is not just my GUI that died. Do I have to perform your commands on my desktop (where I cannot mount the sd card)? Otherwise, I do not see how I can accomplish that. |
