Endless doesn’t boot up

@wjt I can’t find this option!

@LeandroStanger Perhaps you can share some photos of the BIOS settings, maybe it’s there under another name.

Another thing to try is to boot 5.1.0 with splash and quiet deleted and the following added:

    modprobe.blacklist=intel-nvme-remap loglevel=7

This is not expected to make the system boot but if it is the intel-nvme-remap driver that is crashing, you may get a different error message to help validate that theory.

@wjt Still the same thing!

Are there any other options under the “Main” and “Boot” tabs in the BIOS?

Having consulted with the original author of the driver we suspect to be at fault, please try the following. Boot 5.1.0 with splash and quiet deleted and the following added:

    loglevel=7 initcall_blacklist=nvme_remap_drv_init 

Again, this is not expected to make the boot process succeed but if we get a different error it will confirm our theory.

Sorry for not being of help, I don’t feel secure following the instructions because I have little know-how. I fear ruining the system even more or losing my data. There is no more room in the external HD.

@wjt Still the same thing!

Understood! Sorry for the difficulties here. We’re in the process of purchasing an affected laptop so that we can investigate the issue and resolve it in another software update ASAP.

Thank You for your reply! Sometimes I cannot boot up to the old version on the first try following the procedure. I am worried about damaging the HD. Do you think is a bad idea to keep the notebook in the suspend mode to avoid some unsuccessful boot-ups?

It’s weird that booting the old version sometimes fails - in theory this is the exact same (working) installation that you had before upgrading to the buggy version.

Anyway, there’s no issue having your PC in suspend mode for more extended periods.

Sorry, Daniel , I should be more clear on the point; I cut steps.

You are right.

Even waiting for the screen with the manufacturer brand to appear sometimes I hit the key at wrong moment not accessing the Endless boot loader menu. Instead, the screen freezes and it is necessary to turn the machine off and try again.

When I hit the key at the right time I get to the “GRUB”, then is easy to to access the version.

This was all explained by you guys.

Now, other issue. The Chromium Web Browser was up dated while I was working on line. It freezed right after. What can I do?
Also, isn’t better to turn the automatic update off while I am usig this old version?

Are there any further updates available for it in App Center? If so, try installing those. If not and you’re still having trouble, please start a separate thread with a debug log.

We try to fix the boot failure from the kernel and prepare a new release. Beta Release | Endless OS 5.1.1~beta1 has been published.

It will be great to have your test. Thanks!

Thanks! Good news for the coming new year!

The update also worked for me although it’s taking longer than usual to boot.
Thanks! I wish you a great 2024 year!
