Unable to boot after kernel Update, no HDD activity

So after doing a fresh install on an external HDD and trying to perform a kernel update, the system refuses to boot.
Here is journalctl

As far as I can see this is the most recent kernel
and if you can even provide that information
then your system is running - perhaps just not the GUI / the display manager, but the system is up. :man_shrugging:

There are newer linux kernels, like if you go into manjaro settings, kernel, u can literally see a list of them. The global information was taken on the working kernel, as the others don’t want to boot.(Manjaro fails to boot on new kernel - YouTube)
Screenshot from 2022-12-08 19-10-28

I know.
But you didn’t describe that which your video shows.

rt kernels are not a good idea if you don’t have a specific need for them

Why not use what works?

I’m pretty sure that in my first line I said “trying to perform a kernel update the system refuses to boot”. Newer kernels can improve the performance of certain CPU’s, like in my case Alder Lake. Also just managed to fix it by adding this to the grub command line in /etc/default/grub.
“acpi_enforce_resources=lax i915.enable_dc=0”

Good on you!


… updating an existing kernel and installing a new/additional one are two different things
at least to me

again: good on you for solving the issue
