Hi,
I'm unable to boot into my laptop since a recent distro upgrade, which I've been able to work around by rolling back to the most recent functional snapshot (tumbleweed 20200821-0).
Every time I've tried to do a distro upgrade and reboot, all I see after the splash screen is a blinking cursor. I'm able to switch to a non-graphical terminal and log in, but I'm unable to reach GDM. Attempting to upgrade now (to 20200824-0) results in the same problem.
I've never dealt with this before, and don't know where to begin to look. Attached is the latest list of packages that are being installed which cause the error.
Any help appreciated, Chris
Hi, I had a similar problem. After the update finishes, but before rebooting, there may be a dangling symlink from /etc/systemd/system/tmp.mount to /usr/share/systemd/tmp.mount. This symlink must be deleted before reboot. There is a bug filed at https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1175779
Ah wonderful, that was the problem and deleting the symlink solved it. Will look out for those pesky symlinks in the future.
