Bug Description

I had spent three days trying to fix this issue.

(initramfs) exit

Gave up waiting for root file system device. Common problems:

Boot args (cat /proc/cmdline)

Check rootdelay= (did the system wait long enough?) Missing modules (cat /proc/modules; ls /dev)

ALERT! UUID=C025f430-2b2f-40ec-b334-da8e827a9a51 does not exist. Dropping

BusyBox v1.30.1 (Ubuntu 1:1.30.1-4ubuntu6.4) built-in shell (ash) Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands.

The output the help is.

(initramfs) help

Built-in commands:

: [ alias break cd chdir command continue echo eval exec exit export false getopts hash help history let local printf pwd read readonly return set shift test times trap true type ulimit umask unalias unset wait [ [[ acpid arch ash awk basename blockdev busybox cat chmod chroot chvt clear cmp cp cut date deallocvt deluser devmem df du dumpkmap echo egrep env expr false fbset fgrep find fold fstrim grep gunzip gzip hostname hwclock ifconfig ip kill in loadfont loadkmap is lzop mkdir mkfifo mknod mkswap mktemp modinfo more mount my nuke openvt pidof printf ps pwd readlink reboot reset rm rmdir run-init sed seq setkeycodes sh sleep sort stat static-sh stty switch_root sync tail tee test touch tr true tty umount uname uniq wc wget which yes

The output lsblk is:
sh: lsblk: not found.

The output blkid is:
/dev/sda1: LABEL="REDHWAN" UUID="1438-8EAB" TYPE="vfat" PARTUUID="03fbda08-01

The output reboot is nothing but it is working when add -f like : reboot -f.
The output sudo is:
sh: lsblk: not found.

The output fsck is:
fsck from util-linux 2.34

The output: cat /proc/cmdline
