Old Thinkpad, current64: Boot hangs when restarted/started laptop warm
by keithpeter from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5K6JT)
Hello All
Thinkpad X61s with 4Gb ram, 60Gb ssd with lvm encryption as per the docs, full current install. This laptop has always run quite warm after an hour or so irrespective of distro.
Boots and works nice when cold. Couple of days ago, rebooting or shutting down/waiting 2 min/booting up again when warm results in a stalled boot. Photo of screen shows bootup messages when stalled. Did not do this prior to Wednesday 16th updates, but that could be a coincidence.
Any ideas? Anything obvious before I revert kernel to 5.10 to check, and/or perhaps swap hard drive into an X61 that runs cool?
PS: this is a throw away testing install, no urgency just trying to learn and understand.
