My Fedora 35 Cinnamon will sometimes immediately crash upon logging into the desktop. It also sometimes could be hours or even a day or two before it crashes, but once it starts crashing it usually repeatedly does so every boot until I just give up trying. I dual boot with Windows 10 currently, and Windows has no issue that I can see when the crashes start happening.
My OS drive is a 1TB Samsung 870 EVO with a 250gb partition for Fedora. All SMART tests that I’ve ran over the last several days have come back that the drive is not failing.
I mention the SSD I’m using and SMART results because in the first boot log I’m seeing errors like this, but the drive is good so I don’t know:
Dec 25 13:20:29 typo kernel: blk_update_request: I/O error, dev sdb, sector 1443833952 op 0x0:(READ) flags 0x80700 phys_seg 17 prio class 0
This is the uninformative screen that appears (and doesn’t change) once the crash happens:
Once on the above screen, sometimes I can hit CTRL+ALT+DEL and get the system trying to shutdown:
[FAILED] Failed unmounting /boot/efi.
[FAILED] Failed unmounting RPC Pipe File System.
[FAILED] Failed to start Show Plymouth Reboot Screen.
[FAILED] Failed unmounting /boot.
[FAILED] Failed unmounting /home.
[FAILED] Failed unmounting Temporary Directory /tmp.
[FAILED] Failed deactivating swap Compressed Swap on /dev/zram0.
[ 122.017978] watchdog: watchdog0: watchdog did not stop!
[!!!!!!] Failed to execute shutdown binary.
I have a fpaste --sysinfo --printonly output below and 2 boot logs from the crashes. Since both logs are too long to include in the post, I’ve pasted them elsewhere:
From Dec 25:
https://pastebin.com/raw/DafiC3WM
From Dec 23:
https://pastebin.com/raw/BfqY4BNV
I’ll provide different logs if needed.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. This issue has been driving me insane.
