I run Debian stretch on MacBook Air I did a restore backup from previous system[debian Jessie ]
Now machine is not booting upon boot the machine gives the normal GRUB menu: Debian GNU/Linux Advanced options for Debian GNU/linux Click the 1st one saying Loading etc Loading initial ram disk then a list of checks [ 0.049346] DMAR-IR:[Firmware Bug] : ioapic 2 has no mappin iommu, interrupt remapping will be disabled /dev/sda2: clean, 348430/7118848 files, 7186186/28466432 blocks [ 3.895353] sd 6:0:0:0: [sdb] No Caching mode page found [ 3.895361] sd 6:0:0:0: [sdb] Assuming drive cache: write trhough [FAILED] Failed to start Network Manager Wait Online.

And so I cannot update the system and it feels like a catch 22 I could really do with some help -- kelsang sherab she...@fastmail.com
