Hello everyone,
This is my first post on this forum and I am a bit of a noob so I appreciate your patience.
So I just upgraded my proxmox server to 9 and I can't boot into the system. It is stuck at busybox (initramfs) and here are some of my outputs:
zpool status show all of my pools (rpool, hdd-pool and fast-pool). They are all online
From zfs list I can see all my pools and mountpoints, though I will share the rpool mountpoints in case I messed them up when I tried to fix this with AI:
So whenever I try to exit from initramfs I get this error:
or the error would sometimes change to
So I have no idea what's going on or how to fix this. Can anybody help me?
Thanks in advance for any help!

From zfs list I can see all my pools and mountpoints, though I will share the rpool mountpoints in case I messed them up when I tried to fix this with AI:
Code:
rpool 11.8G 93.8G 104K /rpool
rpool/ROOT 6.0G 93.8G 96K /rpool/ROOT

rpool/data 96K 93.8G 96K /rpool/data
rpool/var-lib-vz 5.66G 93.8G 5.66G /rpool/var-lib-vz
So whenever I try to exit from initramfs I get this error:
Code:
cannot open 'config:': no such pool
cannot open 'config:': no such pool
Begin: Importing pool 'Some supported features are not enabled on the pool.' using defaults ... Failure: 1
Failure: 1
Command: 'usr/sbin/zpool import -N 'Some supported features are not enabled on the pool.'
Message: cannot import 'Some supported features are not enabled on the pool.': no such pool available
Error: 1
Failed to import pool 'Some supported features are not enabled on the pool.'
Manually import the pool and exit.
or the error would sometimes change to
Code:
"Begin: Importing pool 'config' using defaults ... Failure: 1"
So I have no idea what's going on or how to fix this. Can anybody help me?
Thanks in advance for any help!
