Hi everyone. First, sorry ! for my bad english, but it isn’t my main language
So, yesterday night all worked fine and I went to sleep. Today morning I started the Whonix Gateway, works fine. But the workstation isn’t working. Get this message at booting:

I doesn’t modified the settings since yesterday, but not working. I tried to give more RAM, but the VirtualBox write an error message, because can’t lock enough memory (Yeah, I doesn’t have too much ram. Yestarday i run the workstation with 1600 MB ram and 4 cpu core)
Hello, welcome to Whonix forums and thank you for your question!
Unfortunately, I don’t know. Can only speculate. Could be, that the (virtual) hard drive got corrupted. In this case, repair and/or data recovery is difficult. Hopefuls you have a backup of data if any. I suggest to delete that Whonix-Workstation and to re-import it (easiest).
When starting the VM, when you get to the boot menu, press e before booting, scroll down to the line that starts with linux and ends with mds=full,nosmt. At the end of that line try adding init=/sbin/init and press Ctrl + X on your keyboard. Does that fix it?
