I ballsed up some support instructions from another thread/issue and now I'm stuck with grub and emergency mode, and pecking at my tiny phone for info.
fstab is corrupt. Thus the boot issue. Live CD takes an hour to boot, then crashes into fallback mode and nothing responds. On top of that, my installation is encrypted so that probably won't even work.
While in emergency mode I have access to command. Seen as I corrupted fstab in terminal, can I fix it there also? The command I was given doesn't apply and gedit gives me:
Code: Select all
Unable to init server: Could not connect: connection refused
(gedit:950): Gtk-WARNING *": 23:49:42:214: cannot open display:
Thanks in advance. None of this is in vain. I locked myself out of my installation 3 times already and it's only been 6 days. I'm learning a lot.
PS: I saw on stack exchange something about adding init=/bin/bash at the end of a kernel something or other and booting, but there's loads of lines on that file and I've no idea where to add it because it's all Greek
