Hello!

I have a big problem with my qubes OS.
When i Start booting and successfully decrypt the disk it brings me to an fatal error.

When i type: journalctl _PID=222
It tells me:

dom0 systemd-modes-load[222]:

Failed to find module 'uinput'
Module 'xen_evtchn' is buildin, Mord buildins are following
Failed to find module 'xen-blkback'
Failed to find module 'xen-acpi-processor'

Can someone help me?
I have important files in my work vm which i need fast.
Or is there any other way how i can geht the files in this vm?

Thanks

have you tryied this?
https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/backup-emergency-restore-v3/
it is intended for backups but *probably* (never tested) will work also
on original AppVM files.
they should be here:
/var/lib/qubes/appvms/<vm-name>/private.img

Anything else after that?
This one should not prevent system from starting. Lack of 'xen-blkback'
will prevent starting any VM, but you should be able to at least copy
/var/lib/qubes - this is where all the VM data is stored.

When did it happened? After some update maybe? Also check if you have
multiple kernels to choose in grub2 menu at system boot - there should
be "Advanced" option and possibly multiple versions - try older one.
