#Notes
Yesterday I had experienced first time in my life windows 7 shutting down scenario in Atm machines.
#Notes From some random users
I had a nearly identical problem a few months ago. Switching into a console from the LightDM login screen (Ctrl-Alt-F1), logging in with administrative username and password, and entering the following commands resolved the issue:

sudo mv ~/.Xauthority ~/.Xauthority.backup
sudo service lightdm restart
#Notes Do not try this at $HOME or ROOT
Delete all with subdirectories
sudo rm -rf

Issue: After a reboot, the boot process drops to the BusyBox shell and I end up at the Initramfs prompt:


BusyBox v1.18.5 (Ubuntu 1:1.18.5-1ubuntu4) built-in shell (ash) Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands. (initramfs)


Cause: 1. Unexpected powerloss and shock to the harddisk in a some way example charging a device while system being shutdown and causing bad superblock in system.

Solution:
Firstly, boot into a live CD or USB

Find out your partition number by using

sudo fdisk -l|grep Linux|grep -Ev 'swap'

Then, list all superblocks by using the command:

sudo dumpe2fs /dev/sda2 | grep superblock

Replace "sda2" to your drive number

Now, to check and repair a Linux file system using alternate superblock # 32768:

sudo fsck -b 32768 /dev/sda2 -y

The -y flag is used to skip all the Fix? questions and to answer them all with a yes automatically

Now try mounting the partition:
sudo mount /dev/sda2 /mnt

Now, try to browse the filesystem with the following commands:

cd /mnt mkdir test ls -l cp file /path/to/safe/location

If you are able to perform the above commands, you have most probably fixed your error.

Now, restart you computer and you should be able to boot normally.
