So, the line "Cannot dump. Device not defined or unavailable." is already going to be an output of the kernel crash. Meaning, during bootup, somehow the kernel crash and since crash dumps was not defined, that is why I was getting that message I just mentioned. Moving forward, what are your recommendations in order for me to be able to boot from my system? Regards, GNUbie
