I have a dual boot setup with windows 10 and Ubuntu 22.04 on a separate drive each.
This morning I could no longer boot my Ubuntu for some reason. I did not install anything, had no new devices etc. just working on my python project. The boot process gets stuck in a "recovery journal" where it scans /dev/sda2 which is my ubuntu boot drive. It does not display any error message it just stops doing anything. On reboot it sometimes says cannot find tocblock, database may be corrupt (see images).
I tried booting into recovery mode and running fsck -f /dev/sda2 which is not possible as it is mounted. I can remount the drive using sudo mount -o rw,remount / as suggested here: Dual boot doesnt boot In "sudo pico /etc/fstab" there is no storage or locker.
I also made an Ubuntu Boot stick. Booting from it and running "try ubuntu" I get stuck at the exact same place. So I dont even get to any terminal to run repairs from.
I then re-entered recovery mode and ran journalctl -xb in case that helps but the log does not help me much (see images).
Meanwhile the windows system (which has its own entire boot drive) runs fine.
Any other Idea what I can try? It is strange to me that I cannot even boot from the USB boot device...
