re: [opensuse] Leap hangs on boot

Hi, Since I while, when I boot my PC, it hangs when Leap starts. I.e. when the diamond-shape with the three dots appears, those dots stall after a while. I let the PC sit like that for a considerable time to test if that helps, but it doesn't. It does not react to the keyboard. The only way to recover is to press the power or reset-button. I found that pressing the escape key the moment the diamond-shape appears to get the boot-logging makes the pc to start up to the login-screen. Then all is fine. I once got the situation where pressing the escape key did not help. I have a picture of that, should it be interesting. The last line said "mounted /var/log", the lines before were mostly similar messages of mounting things. There was also a message of checking a file-system.
Any suggestions how to try to debug this ? In older times, you could look at boot.log and boot.old (I think) but now I can't find that boot.old.
FWIW, the disk uses btrfs.
TIA,
Koenraad. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

In order to see the whole "show" while booting (to have an idea what is going on) you can join the parameter splash=verbose instead of "silent" in the commands passed to the kernel. You can do this by choosing the "advanced options" when booting up. Login is now handled by systemd. To see the journal it is easy: journalctl -h gives you all the options. It may be necessary to be sudo or su - to run it for the boot journal. Also the "ksystemlog" should be functional although I prefer the command line. The option journalctl -r presents you the journal in reverse order (the latest lines first). That may be together with the --system option what you want. --- Mail & Cloud Made in Germany mit 3 GB Speicher! https://email.freenet.de/mail/Uebersicht?epid=e9900000450 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Thanks for the info. I booted three timles without problems. Although I think I circumvented the problem. I think that that "verbose" has the same effect as pressing escape while booting. But now I don't have to remember to press that escape, at the right moment. And my wife will be happy also.
