Hello,
For a while now (3 weeks or so) I have been upgrading the linux kernel
on a Dell XPS laptop starting from 6.1.41-gentoo (which is my current
working kernel) to 6.1.53-gentoo-r1. No kernel I have built since is
able to boot. I have been following the same method for many years:
make
oldconfig, etc...
The booting error starts at:
[snip]
* INIT: Entering runlevel: 3
[snip]
* Starting cronie ...
* Starting DHCP Client Daemon ...
* Starting laptop_mode ...
* Mounting network filesystems ...
/etc/init.d/netmount: line 45 /lib/rc/bin/ewend: Input/output error
/lib/rc/sh/rc-cgroup.sh: line 184: rmdir: command not found
INIT:
INIT: cannot execute "/sbin/agetty"

Can you show /etc/fstab and the console-log for the entire boot?
Seems /sbin
is not readable. You sure you have the kernel modules loaded? Are you
using
an initramfs? If so, does that build without errors ?
The input/output error – to me – indicates a hardware problem. When you
mounted the FS by hand, can you read ewend? For instance with md5sum.
except it boots ok with older kernels. When you've eliminated the
impossible, whatever remains, however improbable has to be a kernel
config change (missing&necessary or erroneous and unintended) , or
initramfs failing to build/install correctly. Check error output from
your kernel&initramfs build.
Right it boots with 6.1.41. I started again from the config of 6.1.41
and unset SRSO:
-> diff linux/.config /boot/config-6.1.41-gentoo

Still no luck; kernel build has no errors. Boot hangs.
Thanks for the replies. Maybe 6.2 will not have this problem for my system.
