Comment # 6 on bug 1170109 from Carlos Robinson

Thank you :-)

For some unknown reason, when told to update to newer packages on repo, it
chose the preempt instead of default. I noticed when booting.

I'll force back. [...] It appears that Kernel-syms requires kernel-preempt and
thus installs both default and preempt. And the preempt goes first in the
default grub2 menu.




Just for future reference, I'll write here the firmware update data. The MB
site is:
<https://www.msi.com/Motherboard/support/X470-GAMING-PLUS-MAX>

One of the updates mentions "- Improved NVMe device compatibility" - might
affect Bug 1170110. I'm going to download and install the latest:

Version       7B79vH4
Release Date  2019-11-11
File Size     14.09 MB
Description
- Improved system boot up time.
- Improved PCI-E device compatibility.

and let's hope it does something good.
