Ubuntu boot error
Gave up waiting for root device. Common problems:
- Boot args (cat /proc/cmdline)
- Check rootdelay= (did the system wait long enough?)
- Check root= (did the system wait for the right device)
- Missing modules (cat /proc/modules; ls /dev)
ALERT! /dev/disk/by-uuid/96889309-5f73-4688-8354-e64cd1bb158f does not exist. Dropping to a shell!
BusyBox v1.21.1 (Ubuntu 1:1.21.0-1ubuntu1) built-in shell (ash)
Enter 'help' for a list of build-in commands.
