Hi all,
So this started with the updated from 6.14.4-200 to 6.14.5-300, I was hoping it would resolve itself. However the issue still persists. I tried rebasing to f42, f41-updates, and f42-updates and nothing has changed. I have my last working deployment pinned and it continues to function normally.
The computer is a Dell Inspiron 7500 2n1. I saw a similar issue with newer dell models, and a upgraded BIOS from dell that solves the issue but that option is not available for this model.
Whenever I boot into the newer kernels, the process stops at the Dell screen. Hitting escape does nothing, I tried to set kernel parameters with various permutations of
rd.shell rd.debug rd.break=cmdline loglevel=7
No matter what I do, it just sits there, gives no log or output whatsoever. I’ve left it for as long as 6 hours and nothing changes. It seems like it not even getting to the initramfs step. I’ve also tried rebuilding the initramfs and that didn’t help (this was after realizing that /boot isn’t immutable ).
What can I do to get some more info out of the system? Should I try building a vanilla kernel? I’m really at my wits end here.
