You need to provide the root password to get in and review the logs. Otherwise, you will not know what the actual issue is.

The thing is, that in that screenshot only the last messages are visible. There is no way to tell whether they are the only error (and thus the root cause) or simply something caused by the _real, first_ error (that is no longer on the screen).

What “logs” are in system that has booted to emergency.target? `dmesg`?  
The `man systemd.special` notes about emergency:

> It is the most minimal version of starting the system in order to acquire an interactive shell; the only processes running are usually just the system manager (PID 1) and the shell process.
