Hi, starting today I have a problem booting my laptop, running Arch with everything up to date. I can boot into the fallback image, but when I boot into the main one, everything hangs after a few moments, with caps and num lock flashing and the keyboard inactive. The screen is displaying lots of stuff like

[<c102d908>] ? kmap_atomic_prot +0xc8/0xf0

On IRC it was suggested I rebuild the image with mkinitcpio, which had no effect. Any ideas how I can diagnose and fix this? Also, what exactly is the difference with the fallback image? I can't tell the difference to the one I usually start.

Thanks,

Jim

As far as I know, the difference between the two is that the fallback image is created without using the 'autodetect' hook; see the table here [1] for more. [1] https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Mkinitcpio#HOOKS -- cantabile "Jayne is a girl's name." -- River

Thanks, it seems that there's no definitive fix in that thread but a few things to try, which I'll do. Cheers, Jim -- J Burton jim@sdf-eu.org
