Rami Khawaly Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 I have changed the sysctl.conf by adding few parameters and it seems that i broke the system now, system is not loading and it's stuck in boot at the following step : [ TIME ] Timed out waiting for device dev-ttyGS0.device. [ TIME ] Timed out waiting for device dev-ttyS0.device. The question is how i recover my system. Is there anyway to recover the sysctl.conf file or any other way to stop the booting process and login to revert my changes? or another way to fix these timeout messages?

sfx2000 Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 In the future... cat sysctl.conf > sysctl.conf.bak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rami Khawaly Posted February 6, 2019 Author Share Posted February 6, 2019 Sure, iI did that. But this doesn't help in my situation as I can't boot and reach any console to recover the file. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
