After upgrading my system to linux kernel to 5.3.8-arch1-1
it fails to boot. There is nothing logged in syslog.
My setup: Grub is decrypting the main disk on which the kernel resides (using the GRUB_ENABLE_CRYPTODISK=y option). Then the loaded kernel decrypts another disk and mounts everything. The setup is similar to this one https://www.pavelkogan.com/2014/05/23/luks-full-disk-encryption/. I don't know if it is related. After decrypting the main disk by grub nothing happens on the screen (especially, the systemd start is not shown as it used to be) except the "slot 0 opened" message. The disk usage LED is only blinking shortly after this message. I am using a Thinkpad x220 (sandybridge CPU). Downgrading the kernel to 5.3.7-arch1-1 fixes the boot failure reproducibly. |
This task depends upon
Downgrading to 5.3.7-arch1-1 solved it.

I am not used to build my own kernel, but I'll try to play arround with the configs a bit. I may find the problem there.

It is not build so far, but probably fix it.
