SOLUTION BELOW

The actual bug

I have never been in a more confusing situation regarding Linux.

I have a Dell XPS 15 9560, which had a dual boot Windows 10 / EndeavourOS setup. It was running fine for months. 10 days ago I updated Linux and after restart it couldn't boot anymore. It got stuck at "A start job is running for /dev/disk/by-uuid/..." (which is the root partition).

First, with the help of a friend of mine who is quite knowledgeable about Linux (he runs vanilla Arch, etc), we spent 5 hours trying to fix it but had no luck.

Then I decided to back up everything and do a fresh install. Aaaand the same error happened again on the first boot. Then I though "ok, probably some problem with Arch, lets try Fedora". Nope. Some similar error about not finding the root partition. (Here I must say that the kernel which was shipped with the ISO was working fine, but after updating to the latest one, it failed.) Here I thought "ok, then it might be a problem with the latest kernel, let's install EndeavourOS with the LTS kernel." Nope, LTS kernel also didn't boot. Then I tried Ubuntu and it worked, but that's not solving the problem. Then I decided to put another nvme drive in the laptop and try there. The same error again.

Now the greatest part: If I put the nvme drive into an external usb case, EndeavourOS installs, updates, boots without any problem, no sign of the error.

So now I don't know how to proceed... Maybe there is something wrong with the pcie port in my laptop, but except for the booting problem, windows is working, I can also mount and access every partition in the ssd through a live usb. So no other signs of problem with the port whatsoever.

I would be grateful for any advice as I've lost several days trying to solve this and I am out of ideas...

Solution: The last working kernels are from 11. August 2023 (both linux and linux-lts) linux-6.4.10.arch1-1 and linux-lts-6.1.45-1. You can download them from here: linux / linux-lts and install them with

sudo pacman -U the_path_to_the_package

Thank you all for the help!

What is the output of blkid and the content of /etc/fstab of the installed-but-not-booting system? You will need a live usb to get the those, probably.

Please use tripe backticks to create codeblocks - much easier to read. Like this:

```

some text

```

results in

I'm also curious about the specific UUID it's looking for. Any chance you could take a photo of the screen and upload it somewhere?

I assume it should look like this

What are the kernel parameters? cat /proc/cmdline

EDIT actually that will show the live system config. Assuming you're using grub, what is the content of /etc/default/grub?

Or /boot/loader/loaders/something.conf if you're on systemd-boot

[-] oiram15@lemmy.sdf.org 0 points 1 year ago

I'm on systemd-boot. Where isn't a directory loaders under loader, but I found the parameters under /etc/kernel/cmdline:

nvme_load=YES nowatchdog rw root=UUID=9ae3c50f-be08-4594-ac30-2d094375868d

[-] Illecors@lemmy.cafe 0 points 1 year ago

My bad, I think in your case it's in /efi/loader/entries/something.conf

Since / is not mounted, yet, bootloader will not be able to read anything under /etc/. Unless it's used to automatically populate the loader.conf.

Also check /efi/loader/loader.conf.

[-] oiram15@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 1 year ago

I found it!

I've never used machine-id with systemd-boot, but everything appears to be corrent. Presumably, /boot contains a directory named 6.4.12-arch1-1, which contains files linux and initrd, correct?

You could try rebuilding the initramfs with mkinitcpio --allpresets while chrooted.

[-] oiram15@lemmy.sdf.org 0 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

they are under /02ef85f9edc146d598502c1b296ff64a/6.4.12-arch1-1/, but yes.

EndeavourOS is using dracut by default.

Edit: we tried rebuilding initramfs before, but it didn't help

[-] Illecors@lemmy.cafe 0 points 1 year ago

OK, I see nothing wrong. Let's try building a new config that's as minimal as possible. Copy linux and initrd files to /boot/.

/efi/loader/entries/test.conf

So this occurs after an update. Is it not possible to boot into the prior kernel?

If possible to boot into the prior kernel, can you inspect logs or the journal to see where your error is cropping up?

This issue sounds like a regression of sorts with a driver, but log/debug would help confirm. This would be one worth reporting to upstream if you can rescue some logs (I gather you can if you can boot the disk from another enclosure).

If you can boot into the machine, investigate note from the journal:

  • journalctl --list-boots
  • journalctl -b -1,
    • where -1 was the prior boot, -2, the one before that, etc

-- If you are booting into a live environment or are otherwise mounting the disk:

  • journalctl -D /var/log/journal/ID_GOES_HERE
  • example path: /var/log/journal/2dff8304d5114c44bfb1311357a3cd87

-- Keep us posted.

If truly a driver regression, but you can boot from the prior kernel (if you don't have it, install it via livecd or so), definitely report this one and remain on the prior kernel until resolved. Bleeding edge things.

[-] oiram15@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I have already wiped everything, so no logs... The only way to have it booting is to install EndeavourOS using the offline installer, which is using kernel 6.4.8. There is an option to install the LTS kernel alongside. So the system is booting with 6.4.8, but after updating, neither the new 6.4.12, or the LTS, which is 6.2, doesn't boot. I haven't tried booting with the LTS kernel before updating, to see if the same kernel is working before and after or not. I will try to reinstall it using the offline installer and then try to gather some logs after updating.

[-] Illecors@lemmy.cafe 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

If you do go this route - try to update the kernel only, not the rest of the system. Yes, it's bad under normal circumstances, but I think we're way past those.

sudo pacman -Syy linux

This would rule out some other part of system getting in the way - like systemd.

Did it boot or did it get stuck at the same spot again?

[-] Illecors@lemmy.cafe 3 points 1 year ago

Implies it is the kernel. Mark it on hold and stick to the working kernel for the time being.

According to your logs when installing the kernel, your nvme modules are nowhere to be found, and basic system tools are unavailable. Your core system seems severely borked... can you do a memtest (broken ram can corrupt your storage and your attemps at finding the problem) and check your smartctl --all of that ssd?

[-] isVeryLoud@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 year ago

Use a live USB to back up your home directory and a list of your packages, then reinstall. I don't think it's worth the trouble.

Try adding "PCIE_ASPM=off" to the kernel boot commandline.

This didn't help :/

[-] timicin@kbin.social 4 points 1 year ago

when it gets stuck on something like that, it's because of a hardware related change; did you update or modify your bios recently or change hardware drivers?

[-] rotopenguin@infosec.pub 3 points 1 year ago

AHAHAHA that is a proper insane bug. One PCIe device shouldn't be able to slap others off of the "bus", "we're not on a bus all you did was mess up your own personal lanes mate".

I lost 3 days of my life + now I need reinstall everything 🥲

That's a weird issue. Do you have encryption on by any chance? I had a similar error pop-up when I didn't have the correct systems hooks for the kernel so that after install update of kernel would make the system not boot.

[-] oiram15@lemmy.sdf.org 4 points 1 year ago

No, I have never used encryption

[-] Parsnip8904@beehaw.org 1 points 1 year ago

Still might be worth it to check that you're not missing any kernel modules.

I had se similar issue but with bluetooth, worked on windows not on linux. Fixed it by resetting the BIOSwith the CMOS battery thing

Shot in the dark: Did SecureBoot get re-enabled somehow? Could you check the UEFI?

[-] Illecors@lemmy.cafe 10 points 1 year ago

Hard to not sound condescending in text, so forgive me.

If systemd is trying to mount the drives, we're at a point where the (most likely) ramdisk has already booted the kernel - secure boot would've prevented that.

I won't take it as condescending then! Thank you for the input :)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
