Hello Kali Linux Forum!

I've been scratching my head for the past couple of days regarding this issue:

After a fresh UEFI install of Kali Linux, I ran a "sudo apt-get update" followed by a "sudo apt-get dist-update" and let it run for about 45 minutes. At the end it said successful, so I restarted my computer.

What my computer now does is it boots to a black screen with text that reads: "Kernel Panic - Not Syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0)..." and a whole bunch of other text (I will attach a screenshot).

I can't seem to find any resolutions to my issue via Google so any help is greatly appreciated.

I'm quite the beginner when it comes to Linux, so please forgive me

Thanks in advance!
