Hi, openSUSE-Tumbleweed-DVD-x86_64-Snapshot20200211-Media.iso was copied to a USB drive, then said drive was booted on the 15" laptop in question. The bootloader, or whatever it is that is happening behind the curtain, freezes once the "boot" command in grub is executed, implicitly by selecting a menu entry, or explicitly invoking it through the grub command line. The framebuffer is left with whatever grub last drew on it, there is not a single Linux kernel line emitted, not even is the fb cleared in any way. Extending the boot line with rd.emergency=reboot rd.driver.blacklist=nouveau rd.retry=5 rd.timeout=7 leads to no success, no reboots, no action on sysrq+b. Windows 10 and the FreeBSD ISO successfully boot, it really just seems to affect Linux - or grub for that matter, I could not tell the difference what component is at fault. I can't get this dead brick to work. If, perhaps, there is one magic saint out there who would like to take a shot (physically providing said machine), we can probably work something out. Or of course, since it's a product from December 2019, it may still be on (digital) markets somewhere, so that is an option too. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
