I made the computer disk read only by mistake and after that I logged off from the Ubuntu and switched off my system. When I started my system then it is unable to restart or reboot. Clicked Ctrl+F2 but it is only showing

dev/sda6: recovering journal

dev/sda6: clean, 242560/1187840 files, 3331370/4742144 blocks

I'm unable to do login or anything after this. System is also not going to bios mode and also unable to re-install the Linux via flash driver as not getting reboot options. Can't do anything after this:

The only thing I can think of in your case would be to use a different computer to install a live-boot operating system on an external hard drive. Then, plug that drive into the machine you're having issues with. Since the main disk is read-only, the PC should automatically default to the next available option for re-boot, which would be external drives.

  • I have a live usb drive but still not getting any reboot option. – Yanki141 Nov 24 '21 at 06:34
  • If what I wrote works, you would have to use an external disk drive (one of the large ones that hold somewhere around 220 GB) that is readable and re-writeable, not just bootable drive like a USB) Please note that I have never tried to do this before, so unless you have an external hard disk in your possession, don't spend the money purchasing one. – JerryWill321 Nov 26 '21 at 19:32
