not yet I hadn't. was not too much on there, but enough that I am highly annoyed -
Looks like a corrupted or missing boot filesystem. Boot from a CentOS 7 Live CD to fix from there.

the biggest thing on there was my daerma.com wordpress site.
I do have a backup of that from the day I moved it to this VM. I will lose a few posts but nothing important.

I'll have to google that process, but can do.

Getting the disc in is easy. Recovering May or may not be.

cannot change the boot device. No idea WTF happened here.

What hypervisor is that?
If the firmware failed, maybe that is the issue.

I did a quick Google and did not get any results. But I had to leave for a dinner with the family and friends. Will look again tonight.

The Panic Code refers to a IPMI (BIOS) Issue. I wonder if you could just make a new VM and attach the disk to it and boot it?

Was thinking to try that if my google fu fails later. Maybe I should just try it first.

Tried to make a new VM and just attach the VHDX with no luck.
Created a complete VM installed CentOS and then shut down and added the old drive as a second HDD. it shows up when I check fdisk. So now to figure out how to copy the everything.

looks like sdb3 is not readable? sdb1 and sdb2 mounted and were readable.

If you can see it like that, what is stopping you from just copying it?
