WetGeek Thanks for telling me things I may not know.

Have you followed the "Mounting your system" section of https://getsol.us/articles/troubleshooting/boot-rescue/en/ ? At first you have to mount your system by following along the steps given there and then do chroot.

My another suggestion is reading through that whole page thoroughly 😉

Infamous711 Thanks. I should have read the whole page.
Now I've mount everything but the first thing. I get this: unknow filesystem type 'LVM2_member'.

I don't know if I am right in this but I think you should export and update the PATH variable in .bashrc (if you use bash, which is the default in solus) or .zshrc (if you use zsh). I always use this method and it always works for me and nothing broke because of this. Also I update my path variable like export PATH=/my/custom/dir:$PATH Although I don't know if I am using the correct way of doing this or not. But this works so maybe I am using the correct method 🤷‍♂️

Your user and pass have to work in tty, have you another characters on your name or pass, I think default keyboard in tty is US-ENG , you have to find maybe it’s in another place key for your pass.
I had a problem with that.

kuki Some keys are different, but the ones that I use for user and pass have not changed.

Do you have lvm enabled? (You can check with sudo lvscan)

If you have then you have to mount the system with mount /dev/SolusSystem/Root /target (My lvm root partition is /dev/SolusSystem/Root, yours maybe different. So check with lsblk and find your root partition)

If you are unsure, just post your lsblk output here. We will try to help.

Infamous711 It worked! My LVM root partition was the same as yours.
Finally I'm editing the problematic file.

That's great to hear! Do remember that if you want to update or modify the PATH variable, update it like this export PATH=/my/custom/path:$PATH in the .bashrc file. Then just as usual source ~/.bashrc and everything should work as usual. Hope this helps.

Infamous711 Thanks, I'll remember that.
