My Linux Mint Cinnamon won’t boot up. It’s getting stuck on this screen and I don’t know what to do to proceed. Before this screen appears it shows the LM logo for a moment.
I’m a total noob and just been using this for a month or two. Did not make any recent changes that I can recall.
Your disks volume can’t boot, so it’s dropping you to a prompt to investigate. You need to run a disk check with ‘fsck’ at a minimum. If you’re not familiar with the CLI , just boot a LiveISO, and check your system disks from a desktop you’re familiar with.
Check maybe you have run out of space in your boot partition. Maybe you have to remove old kernels.
Did your computer lose its bios settings lately? Check to see if it’s set to ahci and not raid if using a single, non-raid disk.
You can try some of the suggestions at https://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-newbie-8/how-can-we-fix-this-no-irq-handler-for-vector-4175692269/, too.
Good luck
