[Bug 987358] New: ucode-intel update in TW snapshot 0619 breaks system start-up
http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=987358 Bug ID: 987358 Summary: ucode-intel update in TW snapshot 0619 breaks system start-up Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Tumbleweed Version: Current Hardware: x86-64 OS: Other Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: Basesystem Assignee: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com Reporter: robby.engelmann@igfs-ev.de QA Contact: qa-bugs@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- I picked the snapshot from openqa and updated the system using zypper dup (from http://openqa.opensuse.org/assets/repo/openSUSE-Tumbleweed-oss-i586-x86_64-S...). I did not see any fails during the upgrade. On the next restart, grub started normally. Then the screen with "loading kernel..." appears and the startup stops at "loading initrd...". Nothing happens from there. Updating all other packages except for ucode-intel leads to a working system. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

I bought a Tuxedo InfinityBook v2 in April this year. Thus, I would think the BIOS is up-to-date. I do not know how to check this. Did anybody try to update it on an crypt-lvm setup machine? And will add the dracut output from the update here.
Tuxedo should supply firmware updates.. crypt-lvm is not involved in your issue..your system fails to load the initrd in the first place.. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

Hi Michal.. do you know how to debug a hang during the initrd loading or the early microcode stuff ?
Try to pass dis_ucode_ldr boot option. This will disable the early microcode loading.
If this helps, it implies that the ucode is the culprit. You can try to downgrade the ucode-intel package.
I updated to the snapshot containing the updated ucode-intel package --> boot hang I updated to the snapshot containing the updated ucode-intel package but this time updated all packages except for ucode-intel --> no boot hang --> thus, it should be clear that the ucode package was the culprit. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
