Operating Systems Linux Red Hat Can't boot RHEL7.2 due to "Start Job is Running" Post 303018795 by Lord Spectre on Friday 15th of June 2018 07:23:38 AM

Can't boot RHEL7.2 due to "Start Job is Running"

Dear community, as already done tons of times, I prepare the RedHat installation on VMWare, then clone it with clonezilla, and finally restore it on final server. Due to different hrdware, I have to boot from rhel-server-7.4-x86_64-boot.iso cd and rewrite the initramfs that contains the hardware info, otherwise the cloned installation doesn't start due to "Start Job is Running" loop.

This time the boot CD can't recognize the RedHat installation (I'm on HP Proliant DL385G2) and also can't enumerate all the disks. Maybe due to missing drivers:

Well, now I'm kicked off from the systemdue to the following error during boot:

At this point I don't have any idea on how I can access the RHEL7 installation to rewrite initramfs, could someone advise?

Thank you
Lucas

UPDATE-INITRAMFS(8)					      update-initramfs manual					       UPDATE-INITRAMFS(8)

NAME
update-initramfs - generate an initramfs image SYNOPSIS
update-initramfs -c|-d|-u [-k version] [-t] [-v] [-b] [-h] DESCRIPTION
The update-initramfs script manages your initramfs images on your local box. It keeps track of the existing initramfs archives in /boot. There are three modes of operation create, update or delete. You must at least specify one of those modes. The initramfs is a gzipped cpio archive. At boot time, the kernel unpacks that archive into RAM disk, mounts and uses it as initial root file system. All finding of the root device happens in this early userspace. OPTIONS
-k version Set the specific kernel version for whom the initramfs will be generated. For example the output of uname -r for your currently running kernel. This argument is optional for update. The default is the latest kernel version. The use of "all" for the version string specifies update-initramfs to execute the chosen action for all kernel versions, that are already known to update-initramfs. -c This mode creates a new initramfs. -u This mode updates an existing initramfs. -d This mode removes an existing initramfs. -t Allows one to take over an custom initramfs with a newer one. -v This option increases the amount of information you are given during the chosen action. -b Set an different bootdir for the image creation. -h Print a short help page describing the available options in update-initramfs. EXAMPLES
Update the initramfs of the newest kernel: update-initramfs -u Create the initramfs for a specific kernel: update-initramfs -c -k 2.6.18-1-686 FILES
