picture of the boot error

After updating to the latest kernel 6.5.5-200, the system will not boot.  I get a few errors and the system reboots itself.


2. What is the Version-Release number of the kernel:6.5.5-200


3. Everything has worked fine with previous kernels and I have fallen back to 6.4.15-200 for now.


4. This error and automatic reboot occur every single time I try and boot from 6.5.5

5. Does this problem occur with the latest Rawhide kernel? Have not tried yet but I will.


6. Are you running any modules that not shipped with directly Fedora's kernel?: No


7. Please attach the kernel logs. I don't think it's getting far enough into the boot process to even log anything.  Ill attach the picture i took with my phone.

I tested the latest rawhide Kernel (6.6.0-0.rc3) per the recommendation and it is having the same problem.  Reboots itself right after grub selection.  Rolled back to 6.4.15. thx

For clarity, I should also add that I havent had hardware problems in the past and everything has been working great with previous kernels.  Thx

I disabled the 'quiet' kernel line option in grub to try and get more info and this is the last i see before it freezes for about 20 secs then reboots.  I don't see any obvious errors, it just stops then reboots.  I realize this may not be helpful at all but I'm just putting it out there just in case.  See second attached picture thx.

Comment 6 anon 2023-09-28 15:33:05 UTC
In my troubleshooting I removed as many peripheral devices as I could and it ended up being a firewire PCIe addon card that was the culprit.  Once removed, the kernel boots and works fine.  The card is a VIA 'VT6308P' (PCIe Firewire 400 Card,IEEE 1394a).  So I'm not sure if there was a driver update or why this is a problem all of the sudden since it has been working fine in previous kernels.  I don't need the card anymore so I will just close out the ticket.
