I am trying to install LMDE onto my Acer AspireOne netbook. I had Mint 10 working on it with no problems before. When I try to boot after installing LMDE from a USB drive, GRUB loads and I get the "WElcome to GRUB!" message with a blinking cursor underneath. Nothing happens. When I try to boot into LMDE through the USB drive using the "Boot from Local HDD" option, things seem to move smoothly until I get a message that says:
Code: Select all
Begin: Running /scripts/init-bottom ... mount: mounting /dev on /root/dev failed: No such file or directory
done.
mount: mounting /sys on /root/sys failed: No such file or directory
mount: mounting /proc on /root/proc failed: No such file or directory
Target filesystem doesn't have requested /sbin/init.
No init found. Try passing init= bootarg.
Any help would be appreciated. Sorry if this is glaringly obvious and this sounds noobish. I've only been one of the Linux faithful for about a year.
Thanks!
