The booting process stops with the information: Timed out for waiting the udev queue empty. Kernel is linux66.

Hi @m-bostaurus,

Please see:

Timed out waiting for device disk/by-uuid/

Hello, check fstab with cat /etc/fstab which mountpoint this partition have. Then check with sudo blkid if the UUID is correct. Correct the wrong UUID with the one blkid with sudo nano /etc/fstab (write the correct one there. Or just comment this partition out if it is not the root or boot partition with “#” at the beginning in /etc/fstab and correct it when you logged in.

I solved it on my own. As I said, it is kernel linux66. I stepped into the operating system via chroot. I had to test several commands; what worked was: pacman -S linux610 linux610-headers linux610-nvidia
With the more new kernel everything is fine again.

Is Linux 6.6 not a new kernel?
I am asking because I have recently upgraded my kernel to 6.6.34-1-MANJARO and I am not sure if this update will cause any issues on my machine.

It’s LTS = Long Term Support; in other words, it’s “current” for the next several years.
6.10 is HWE = Hardware strong textEnablement, which is aimed more at the latest hardware but will be superseded fairly soon. But, use whatever works best.

It’s currently the latest LTS kernel.

Unless you have a specific issue I don’t see how this kernel would cause any issue due to updating. Worst-case scenario, chroot and install a different kernel.

Ok… thanks for reply
