Fedora hangs on startup, root partition problem

I have Fedora installed alongside Windows on a 1TB dual boot drive. This drive is also connected in VirtualBox, which allows me to boot from the hard drive in a virtual machine, which is Fedora in Windows. Like this: https://www.serverwatch.com/guides/how-to-use-a-physical-hard-drive-with-a-virtualbox-vm/

However, suddenly Fedora started directly from GRUB stopped working and threw an error that probably has to do with my root partition. Booting in VirtualBox still works, so I can try to fix it there, but I don’t know what to do. I have Fedora installed alongside Windows on a 1TB dual boot drive.

I tried to fix it by updating the system via virtualbox, but it didn’t work. The error has changed to the following:

The current system version is Fedora 42. Rescue mode started from disk also throws errors.

This is what the fstab file looks like that I got to via virtualbox. Unfortunately, I tried to change the uuid in it, modified the fstab file and now the system does not allow you to do many things because the disk is in read-only mode. I tried to change the file to the original one but it is also impossible. However, my attempt to change the fstab file did not bring any improvement for starting directly from the disk and not as a virtual machine, it only worsened the operation of the virtual machine.

In view of the fact that my attempts to repair it bring the opposite effect, I am asking for help.

I suspect that the system has been updated in VirtualBox and because of this some configuration has broken and prevents the system from starting from the hard drive, but only from VirtualBox

Try booting a live usb image to look at the fedora setup.
In the live environment mount the root and see if that works.
