Hi Roman,
I was able to reproduce this in a VM using GDM, even switching to tty2
and trying to login as root doesn’t work.
I thought this might be an issue with the bash startup but even
switching the login shell to tcsh I can’t login.
Even connecting or starting a command through ssh doesn’t work!
Adding and removing the gdm-service-type seems to trigger it, so here is
a temporary fix you can apply (adapt to your config):
(services
(append (list
(service sddm-service-type))
(modify-services %desktop-services
(delete gdm-service-type))))
We still have to wonder why and how gdm-service-type soft locks the
system though…
Have a nice day,
Noé
