18.04 - Disk says “read only”, and then reboot goes into initramfs
I was trying to work on some files on my Ubuntu machine, and when I tried to save them, it told me that the disk was read only. I then rebooted the machine, but upon rebooting into Ubuntu it displayed an initramfs command prompt with all my files gone. How do I restore my desktop environment and my files?
