Dual booting - issues booting after successul(?) install - Raspberry Pi Forums

to make life little easier on housemates i'm having go @ dual-booting raspbian lite , openelec on same card can switch retropie , openelec.

followed instructions @ https://github.com/retropie/retropie-se ... oobs-image , installed both oss. note created custom image of raspbian lite , not full raspbian or retropie. there's long audio related story behind this

upon booting raspbian pushed in "emergency mode" after noticing startup failures @ boot. running 'journalctl -xb' provides lot of output usual relevant lines appear be:

code: select all

dev-mqueue.mount mount process exited, code=exited, status=1 failed mount posix message queue file system unit dev-mqueue.mount entered failed state

first error , things tend go downhill there.

code: select all

sys-kernel-debug.mount mount process  exited, code=exited, status=1 

, worse still

code: select all

/bin/mount proc execite exit status 1 systemd-remount-fs.service: main process exited, code=exited, status=1/failure failed start remount root , kernel file system

along many others.
error of course me unsure how determine cause. instructions note partition sizes , files sizes of partitions once you've installed , backed up. it's worth noting performed on mac ext2-fuse installed.

code: select all

/dev/disk2 (internal, physical):    #:                       type name                    size       identifier    0:     fdisk_partition_scheme                        *31.9 gb    disk2    1:             windows_fat_32 boot                    62.9 mb    disk2s1    2:                      linux                         1.3 gb     disk2s2     $ ls -l *.tar -rw-r--r--  1 root  499   20414976 may  8 18:58 boot.tar -rw-r--r--  1 root  499  705877504 may  8 18:57 jessie-lite.tar    

, these sizes translated partitions.json following

code: select all

 {   "partitions": [     {       "label": "boot",       "filesystem_type": "fat",       "partition_size_nominal": 63,       "want_maximised": false,       "uncompressed_tarball_size": 20     },     {       "label": "jessielite",       "filesystem_type": "ext4",       "partition_size_nominal": 1300,       "want_maximised": true,       "mkfs_options": "-o ^huge_file",       "uncompressed_tarball_size": 705     }   ] }

i'm not sure i've gone wrong here pointers gratefully received.

what type of card using? i'm asking because i'm investigating problem appears fake card - correct capacity potentially dodgy controller/flash combo.
