It looks like it has absolutely nothing to do with Trisquel. The shell you show us interprets command for the UEFI (that replaced the BIOS on modern hardware).

I also have problems with installing Trisquel 7.0 LTS Belenos DVD ISO (64bit) on my PC
After GUI install, reboot I get only a shell with the following text:

Gave up waiting for root device. Common problems:
- Boot args (cat /proc/cmdline)
- Check rootdelay= (did the system wait long enough?)
- Check root= (did the system wait for the right device?)
- Missing modules (cat /proc/modules; ls /dev)

ALERT! /dev/disk/by-uuid/4e2e4952-f2b0-4458-afe4-22f8cbe53ac1 does not exist.
Dropping to a Shell!
BusyBox v1.21.1 (Ubuntu 1:1.21.0-1ubuntu1) built in shell (ash)
Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands.
(initramfs)

looking on the internet, I'm not the only one that has this problem:

Haven't you altered the disk partitioning before the problem happened?

What is the content of /etc/fstab? If a line starts with UUID=4e2e4952-f2b0-4458-afe4-22f8cbe53ac1, then look at its second column, the mount point, identify (for example using the "Disks" utility in the "System settings" of Trisquel's live system) what is the proper corresponding device (something like "/dev/sda3") and substitute "UUID=4e2e4952-f2b0-4458-afe4-22f8cbe53ac1" with this device.

Thank you Magic Banana, for your message:

During install i choose "erease everything and use entire disk"
Normally you don't have to alter the disk partitioning after choosing this setting,

I have installed Trisquel 7.0 on another computer, with a Intel quad core, with an Asus P5Q-Pro motherboard
and now the install went good, so I think it's hardware related issue, because I used the same CD

it's same that the lack of compatible (open)hardware is still the achilles heel of Free Linux in general...
We all should work together to make a open hardware platform (motherboard, cpu, etc) because without open hardware open source software is not complete....

Thanks,

Zerrax

You should self-test your disk from the upper-right button of the "Disks" utility in the "System settings". The support issues Linux-libre has are mostly concentrated on Wifi and video cards. What we need is documented hardware. People here (including myself) usually do not stand for anything "open", a weak word that serves "open washing".
