print_req_error: I/0 error

Solution 1:

If you have removed your swap file then ensure that in step 3 that you have commented out the swap file line (it will have 'swap' in the same line) and in step 4 comment out the first (and only)

  1. Run this dpkg-reconfigure initramfs-tools and then restart and continue

  2. lsblk -f command, and note the UUID's

  3. Ensure that the UUID's in this file are right /etc/fstab -- sudo nano /etc/fstab

  4. Ensure that the UUID's in this file are also right /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/resume. -- sudo nano /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/resume.

  5. Run sudo update-initramfs -u and restart

Solution 2:

I saw this on the following website: https://tinycp.com/community/show/solved-print-req-error-i-o-error-dev-fd0-sector-0,43.html

# rmmod floppy
# echo "blacklist floppy" | tee /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-floppy.conf 
# dpkg-reconfigure initramfs-tools 

For me this seems to work pretty fine! (Oh, I just saw the page was referenced already in an earlier anwer. But this containts step-by-step commands (as does the linked page) which solved the issue for me.)

Thanks
