Totally fair - thanks for explaining. Would a boot from a liveUSB suffice? I did have similar issues off a liveUSB when installing - but it was relatively random, and less frequent.

But yes, I also have the 1089513 issue, i.e. Nvidia doesn't work with 6.12.x (but that's a separate issue! π) > > Secondly, we have in meanwhile 6.12.10 in unstable, can you upgrade to > this kernel.

Recently I've noticed it will boot into 6.12.9 -- it doesn't seem to fail as often (I have been trying it after every apt full-upgrade I run). I've been keeping everything very up to date, in hopes of a fix βΊοΈπ€π» so, maybe something else got updated recenty? I'll keep you updated as I dig in further! Mark
