Hi Everybody !

We have a HP Prolian DL380 G6 server with Bios P62 Rev 06/02/2013..
It was installed with debian 6 originally and upgraded to Version 8.
The server has a LVM partition with some Xen virtual machine. I have
tried to install a fresh new debian 8 .
Everything was fine during the installation  ( only root partition was
formatted..) but when I restarted the server has never booted again.
The boot process run till grub rescue prompt..
Do you have any suggestion how can I repair it ?

Thanks a lot
Zoltan

Get a live-boot USB stick (GRML is nice) and see what partitions
and LVM still exist.

OK, then your problem-hunting starts with grub. Reboot, edit
your grub menu, and use a root=/dev/sda3 type name to specify
your root file system. Does that work?
