Hello, trying to start the rescue system from 13.2 on my Dell XPS 15 causes a total system crash when it switches to graphics mode ( NVidia Optimus graphics) .
I want to open a bug report for that but I cant't get any useful information from the crashed system because there is neither a serial port for running a serial console nor a ethernet port for running a netconsole ( USB-adaptors for ethernet or serial port don't work AFAIK). Are there any ideas for getting enough information for a useful bugreport from that system ?
PS: Installation system seems to be usable however. I was probably wrong when I said it is crashing when switching to graphics mode. Last line before it crashes is "Loading rescue system (3/3)" with no error message before Then the screen goes black ( that makes it impossible to take a photo) and the Caps-Lock LED begins to blink. Adding the proposed kernel parameters ( neither acpi_backlight... nor nomodeset ...) doesn't change anything.
caps lock blinking = kernel crash time for a full bug report ...
