Stuck at boot after upgrade to Fedora 41

You need to ask yourself that question as it’s not a fedora provided kernel, none use the -amd64 suffix.

And how fix that?
May be i need ask myself why at all i need use so buggy software like test rhel products - fedora?!

Because i use chroot(host Devuan 5 kernel 6.1.0-31-amd64) for access to broken fedora

freeartist-devuan@devuan:~$ sudo su
[sudo] password for freeartist-devuan: 
root@devuan:/home/freeartist-devuan# chroot /mnt
root@devuan:/# uname -r
6.1.0-31-amd64
root@devuan:/#

There is no need to chroot, it makes doing changes much harder.
you can edit grub on boot up to access runlevel 1 or 3 instead, VT should still work ok

Or just use edit grub on boot to remove the nouveau blacklist from the cmdline

you mean, edit grub before boot to load txt or guy?
i.e.
systemctl set-default multi-user.target
systemctl set-default graphical.target

what is VT?

  1. Temporary Changes (During Boot):
  • Access the GRUB Menu: Press and hold the Shift key or Esc key during the system’s boot sequence to access the GRUB menu (if it’s hidden).
  • Select the Entry: Use the arrow keys to navigate to the operating system entry you want to modify.
  • Press ‘e’: Press the e key to edit the boot parameters of the selected entry.
  • Modify Parameters: Use the arrow keys to move to the line containing the boot arguments (usually starting with linux or linuxefi).
  • Add or Change Arguments: Add or modify kernel parameters as needed.
  • Press Ctrl+x: Press Ctrl+x to boot with the modified parameters.

VT = virtual terminal
