Not booting after an update (getting stuck/frozen at /dev/nvme0n1p2 clean ... files, x/x blocks))

Hello, after an update, and rebooting my laptop, it stays in a black screen with /dev/nvme0n1p2 clean … on the top left of the screen.

I tried looking for solutions and it looks like it’s related to nvidia. I saw in a recent post that he used the following commands:

sudo mhwd -r pci video-nvidia
sudo mhwd -i pci video-nvidia-470xx

The problem is that with mhwd -li, I have the following video:

video-hybrid-amd-nvidia-prime
video-linux

Which I found another solution with:

sudo mhwd -r pci video-linux

sudo mhwd -i pci video-modesetting

force reinstalling the hybrid driver

sudo mhwd -f -i pci video-hybrid-amd-nvidia-prime

Which solution do I go with? Just to be sure I already tried with sudo pacman -Syu with manjaro-chroot. I have Nvidia 3060

Hi @GerLC, and welcome!

In order for us, or anyone for that matter, to be able to provide assistance, more information is necessary. To that end, please see:

Hope you manage!


Tip:

To provide terminal output, copy the text you wish to share, and paste it here, surrounded by three (3) backticks, a.k.a grave accents. Like this:

```
pasted text
```

This will just cause it to be rendered like this:

Portaest sed
elementum
cursus nisl nisi
hendrerit ac quis
sit
adipiscing
tortor sit leo commodo.

Instead of like this:

Portaest sed elementum cursus nisl nisi hendrerit ac quis sit adipiscing tortor sit leo commodo.

Alternatively, paste the text you wish to format as terminal output, select all pasted text, and click the </> button on the taskbar. This will indent the whole pasted section with one TAB, causing it to render the same way as described above.

Thereby improving legibility and making it much easier for those trying to be of assistance.

Please edit your post accordingly.


You should be able to get all that from a chroot environment.

I had (and still do have) this issue as well. For me, I managed to boot into the display manager by removing the X11 config file in /etc/X11/xorg.conf from a live medium terminal. I have no idea what is causing this. Attemping to change any resolution/refresh-rate related settings in nvidia-settings makes the issue occur again. I’ve seen a few people have a similar problem so I assume there will be some action taken soon. Hope this helps with your issue.

Because whatever you modify via nvidia-settings has to be added to /etc/X11/mhwd.d/nvidia.conf file and NOT create the /etc/X11/xorg.conf because those two will be in conflict, creating the issue you described.

On the other hand, the OP has:

But the Nvidia driver might have some issues
