Caution
With the kernel exchanged and the configuration restored to safe options, it should
now be possible to boot the emergency kernel. Log in and rescue.
To restore your system back to its normal state, you'll need to follow these steps:
Rename
kernel.img
to
kernel_emergency.img
(for future rescues).
1.
Rename
kernel.bak
to
kernel.img
(reinstate your normal kernel).
2.
Restore/alter your
config.txt
configuration, if necessary.
3.
Restore/alter your
cmdline.txt
configuration, if necessary.
4.
At this point, you can reboot with your original kernel and configuration.
