Ubuntu 16.04 image + Plesk fail booting

This is a random issue that you might run into on Ubuntu 16.04 with Plesk install. It has been fixed for newer images as of Jun, 5th 2018.

  1. Load Knoppix or Gparted to your DVD drive from the cloud panel.
  2. Mount your partitions using the following guide: https://unsrewiki.1sys1.com/index.php/2019/05/13/unable-to-mount-lvm2_member/

3. chroot to mnt.

# chroot /mnt

4. Disable apparmor and you will get the odd output bellow, but don’t worry it means it worked:

# systemctl disable apparmor apparmor.service is not a native service, redirecting to systemd-sysv-install Executing /lib/systemd/systemd-sysv-install disable apparmor insserv: warning: current start runlevel(s) (empty) of script apparmor' overrides LSB defaults (S). insserv: warning: current stop runlevel(s) (S) of scriptapparmor’ overrides LSB defaults (empty).†

5. Eject the DVD from the server and reboot back to local and server should boot right up.
