Linux kernel not able to mount rootfs from USB

2.2k views Asked by At

I am using Intel Joule 570x board for reference which has 64-bit x86 architecture.

I am using GRUB2 as the bootloader and mainline kernel 4.9. I built the kernel, also busybox rootfs and then tested them on qemu and I can boot to shell.

Now I put the kernel bzImage, GRUB and rootfs onto the USB. I have created first partition as FAT and put bzImage and GRUB files there. I created second partition as ext4 and put rootfs files there. Then I plugged it to the development board.

This is my GRUB menuentry :

menuentry "dev kernel" {
    set root=(hd0,msdos2)
    linux (hd0,msdos1)/bzImage root=/dev/sda console=ttyS2,115200n8 console=tty0
}

The kernel throws error :

VFS: Cannot open root device "sda" or unknown-block(0,0): error -6

Can anyone please help. My USB is also getting detected and I have built all the filesystems (fat,ext4,etc.) into the kernel. The board also has eMMC inbuilt storage and SD card which are also getting detected.

Here are complete boot logs :

EDIT One strage behaviour I have noticed, if I pass kernel parameter from GRUB2 as /dev/sdb, then the kernel shows sda1 and sda2 as the available partitions, with same error.

The solution is to add "rootwait" to the kernel commandline. The USB pendrive needs a little time to be recognized so the kernel need to wait for it.
