    well in this particular case it’s initramfs’ fault for not designing for all-or-nothing atomicity (a operation either completes fully or not at all). which you can work around with a terminal multiplexer where a session can be re-attached later in such cases btw.

      Thanks, the multiplexer idea is actually really good.

      Having Said that, In my particular case it was actually my fault.
