Boot failure
Dec 19th 2012, 16:23

After selecting opensuse 12.1 from the GRUB menu the system fails to boot and eventually displays the message below:

"[ 127.629545] systemd-readahead-collect[353]: Failed to write pack file."

Prior to this there are various messages such as "fcsk succeeded...", "Mounting root...", "...recovering journal" and "systemd-fcsk[732]" but no further progress is made after the above message.

Could somebody please explain what the message means and suggest a resolution that will permit the system to boot as normal. Could any recovery be done with a live cd?

The system had been working normally for ~2 months and just before the error message had been copying a large data set from one usb drive to another over 4 to 5 days.

Any suggestions or comments appreciated.
