Hello,

I did a few more tests

     - using USB2+hdmi, boot is fast but with  a long period after the EFI boot when the kernel is selected, the system is coming up after 1 minute or so.      - using USB3+hdmi, boot is slow with the same long period after the EFI boot but also with a very slow process after the 3 first lines it takes many minutes to go to the next line after "Basic system" line, the system is coming up after a few minutes.
     - using USB2+hdmi with hdmi_force_hotplug=1, same as USB2
     - using USB3+hdmi with hdmi_force_hotplug=1, huge timeout, the system is not booting
    I did not try USB3 without hdmi .. :)

    Hello guys,


    I have been working on a very strange issue when booting Fedora 35
    on RPI4.


    I have the issue on 5 different RPI 4 boards, I have tried to swap
    power, network cable, network port, network switch, even use a new sd
    card/ssd drives....

    1/ I use the arm-image-installer with target=rpi4 and the last F35
    aarch64 raw image to flash a SD Card.

    2/ I boot the new system and it is working fine

    3/ I updated the system with dnf -y upgrade

    4/ I move the system VG (fedora_fedora) on a SSD drive connected
    using
    USB-SATA converter. and then use "dracut --force" to make the system
    working fine.

    5/ reboot is ok after that and the system is running well.


    I discovered after many tests that when the USB-SATA is connected
    on one
    of the 2 USB2 ports (en the left side) that the system is booting
    well.

    but if you connect on the USB3 ports (between USB2 and ethernet port)
    the system is not booting....

    but if in this configuration you have a HDMI port connected to a
    monitor, then the system is booting well....


    to sum up

         USB-SATA    : USB2    => booting ok

         USB-SATA    : USB3    => not booting


Does it work if you add " hdmi_force_hotplug=1" to '/boot/efi/config.txt'?



         USB-SATA    : USB3 + HDMI        : connected to monitor =>
    booting ok




    I used theses systems to test ESXI arm edition and everything was
    working fine using USB3 ports without any HDMI port used.


    I found the following posts
    (https://forums.raspberrypi.com/viewtopic.php?t=245767,
    https://forums.raspberrypi.com/viewtopic.php?f=28&t=245323
    <https://forums.raspberrypi.com/viewtopic.php?f=28&t=245323>) and
    tried to
    append  "usb_storage.quirks=174c:0825:u" using

    grubby --args="usb_storage.quirks=174c:0825:u" --update-kernel
    /boot/vmlinuz-5.15.12-200.fc35.aarch64


    but it seams to have no effect ... the system is not booting

    When I plug back the HDMI port, from dmesg I see that

    Did I do something wrong, do you have any idea ?


    Thanks
