Kernel 5.10.1 hangs while booting
by Gordie from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5BX35)
This is my old Lenovo W510 Thinkpad laptop. Have not been able to reboot with the upgraded 64-bit kernel.
Lucky I have saved the last kernel that worked as an entry in my lilo.conf so am able to boot and surf. Kernel 5.4.84 works.
I use lilo and both the generic and the huge kernels hang while booting. The only way to get running again is to force a reboot with the power button. Not sure how to get at a log to post but was able to take pics of the screen with my cellphone. Maybe there is a way to post the pics?
Whatever you need to see I can post
