Hi to all,

( in my Proxmox VE 4.0Updated on 06 October 2015Version: 4.0-0d8559d0-17 )

I have this problem in my first vm (100).
In this vm(100) i have install debian with some services(tomcat,apache,etc).

One day....
I lost the web interface and SSH from my ProxMox server..(no access..only ping)

I close the server (power off)!! ..and after turn on the server...booting ProxMox OK.. ..and 2 VMs of 3 start OK.

Booting the VM 101(winXP) and VM 102(win10) ... But VM 100 not boot..

i opening the console of vm 100 and i see this message...:
Code:
 /bin/sh can't access tty job control turned off    (initramfs)

Hi,
as the error msg say you have to run fsck on the sda1.

this mean in this case, turn off the vm.

make a copy of the vmdisk.
run fsck on the the file what is your vmdisk.
 
:(

Hi Georges

As Wolfgang said, make sure before you have a backup of your VM100 ( trackerr)
and the read the fsck man page to get an overview of waht you will do

You have to call

fsck /dev/sda1

on the console of VM100 ( trackerr)
( ie the place where you see the message)
/bin/sh can't access tty job control turned off (initramfs)
