Bug ID: 460319
Summary: Boot loop due to change in boot priorities
Classification: KDE Neon
Product: neon
Version: unspecified
Platform: Neon
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: neon-b...@kde.org
Reporter: legend.f...@gmail.com
CC: j...@jriddell.org, neon-b...@kde.org, sit...@kde.org
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Since a few weeks, KDE Neon doesn't boot from the boot disk where the operating
system is installed. Instead, it keeps booting in a loop and displaying the
message "reset system" in the upper left corner of the screen. After accessing
the boot menu, I noticed that the system tries to boot from a USB drive as
first priority even though there is none. I then try to change the first
priority to my NVME drive with KDE Neon installed, save the changes and boot.
This way I boot KDE Neon without problems, but every time I shut down my
laptop, I have to repeat the same process. As a side note, every time I follow
these steps and once in KDE Neon, Discover suggests I install "UEFI dbx" to
version 217. Also add that I have no dual boot set up and only use KDE Neon as
my primary OS.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Start the computer.
2. After several seconds of booting in a loop, access the boot menu.
3. Once in the menu, change to "NVME: ubuntu" as the first boot priority
instead of "USB Key".
4. Save the changes and boot.
5. Once in KDE Neon, shut down the computer.
OBSERVED RESULT
The computer takes a few seconds to boot up and the boot loop repeats again,
trying to detect KDE Neon on a USB key.
EXPECTED RESULT
Boot KDE Neon from the hard drive or NVME drive.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Operating System: KDE Neon 5.26 (User Edtion)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.26.0
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.98.0
Qt Version: 5.15.6
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Every time I manage to boot KDE Neon, Discover asks me to update UEFI dbx to
version 217. Once updated, I turn off the computer and the problem with booting
persists, asking again to update UEFI dbx.
