On 4th Apr 20, I updated my hardy 64bit system which worked well before update. After update, boot froze.
On boot hanging, pressing ctrl-alt-del twice makes boot process go.
After booting, files are on read only state.
"sudo mount -o remount, rw /dev/sda1" makes files writable.
After that, I can update my system. But still boot fails in my system.
My system: mainboard: ASUS p5b-e plus, 64 bit PC
dmesg attached
Crash in dmesg:
