[arch-general] Archiso doesn't show prompt
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA512 Ahoi, I have a Supermicro server and since last month archiso doesn't work anymore. The 2020.04 iso did boot fine but the 2020.05 and 2020.06 boots up but doesn't show the prompt. I just get a cursor that blinks and nothing more. When I switch to other ttys there is also just the blinking cursor. I don't know what I can do to further debug this. My hardware is a Supermicro X11SSH-LN4F with a Xeon E3-1275v6. - -- Greetings Ricardo Band https:// www.ricardo.band mailto:// email@ricardo.band xmpp://jabber@ricardo.band -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAEBCgAdFiEEhyzgFNiV8yZuI1T5Gp1lfQa1gg4FAl7gBT0ACgkQGp1lfQa1 gg7UixAAi75mXsmXOb9ZvDdwCTBJj3f4bIajcfp7jBt1KP+TTNOGA7w6oPA6ofqx dMxS/WWV0hoR8M1x7XQPvnDugohmTYBbQSeSqRyEDIGUd+DeIaVd1KcSaweqG4PZ WP01lqXursj0zCVNZ2iQXdGx1gd/9KDp3MQH4cO2Us5XDlI1FzOph2YRFmbfWenR NA1ZqrMg/YjJKx5VTrlZzO/YqdphAtl1gLGrjEbJ5+EMkSC6Hefb6jSEdTE6CEiB DBrpW6ckRXMO+CWIhF1/7kfFeCLNQvyTG9+brytsJe/pJDtqp48ACxU+xqcIKhhs EU98iyDO+xBpYtMUh5YY+4Hg2N598FLmLMsiFQQH4XnBKv+hkp38m+NZBt3SpwjB MyQT3mWNrfhbGXEqhMus1FSNO+AtNJZKG4vJTy8oOxQmEu9cQ6J7xykb1wntyq5M lL40kS9zPXyGD0Dsk2cArsJ9f1g/xntpxe/GRlOm3xDLsNQA0vU12VHZRxp7si+l E1XoaNsOu9xsLa2VcyzUXQhu5hYT4fFMO6vzQm5tixZvmozH0UYWI4rTxboGC8XY g508kO8wVxr1x1t//AZgnuUnMP46C28AFXNrMn3tOpnohWk5yX85eFAeCUc5AP+F 0ERy8AGsqRMZWejLGzyf/5xHLd1rw3XRqzodHWGAecwQ500gGHU= =uT9M -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

Hi Ricardo, hm, that's an odd one. Are you sure that you have been booting 2020.06? There has been a bug related to dhcpcd [1], that led to archiso not booting correctly [2]. However, I since have replaced dhcpcd with systemd-networkd as the default on the image (which currently due to DNSSEC related configuration options still has its own problems, but I digress). This change is on the 2020.06 image and others have reported this to work for them. If you can, attach a debug shell (add `systemd.debug-shell=1` to your kernel cmdline parameters by editing the boot entry) and get some more info on what is going wrong.

Now I feel stupid. I just put a fresh 2020.06 image on a stick and it booted fine. After looking a bit closer I found that I have 2 USB sticks attached. Both come up as Sandisk Partition 1. I just used the wrong one which still had the 2020.05 image on it. So, thx Dave. You fixed the 2020.05 problem for me too. btw I found a good korean place. We still wanted to meet sometime. ;) - -- Greetings Ricardo Band https:// www.ricardo.band mailto:// email@ricardo.band xmpp://jabber@ricardo.band -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAEBCgAdFiEEhyzgFNiV8yZuI1T5Gp1lfQa1gg4FAl7hCs0ACgkQGp1lfQa1 gg5/dw//d5nI+saZ/fOmByp9EK03NeSXyh4jC7wFUDdVH+4JgJydRdGdZ1liWcO+ NIIs/oyb8SQot++Fjxv3W2zhC6n/Rmqud5F4lJzlh2gQa/FMChbz8+5RwyFoYGa3 UQIdQBctiGBtVwaFll4irWjV0x4tyRh9x8eyyUTF7tgLZKHBpRMfw+jNF73zq2qk +reBGZnHkJJoQMPX1kyzCE9iNFUDzDbJoM2+jIRgkYwnSSXTvRFN6trqF6ILCVYJ ZXiCQm3nvLDbFe/EXWg7ux5cpEo//FizOdELh9jpf+Msgj4CzYvLP4eULDTKI+/4 AMX5opjtaOonGehtAC4A6ZmjS5xMq5BN/14CPg45YFpaJKHkJQzKSkNYn1WE1WR4 l39uoPlZ6iYRu3am1hDWn8koQ3bdUF8g5rIPlNRqmlOIiUB2WBqcySD+MPGO+efi gpuvLNY1S7aaBBFXN88/U8Kc0WAH6iJURbfOUFtxfKKmylctuDS9gpw+SftP/gJf yWuax1syLaSucp6dOBqLq/IJcAyyKrdQLkPmFRsB12Uh32tf7meC/fHBErLNjljy CTyMMbOxFJqbHpDLDEcddRP0cr6c32JI6gIzXDo94+dBFpJhVSwb/iwyxNuNO/S/ FFS9wDC6Nin9UAiD3M2RmbHXRZW0m9QGmtNe30nAYKd02GytFpo= =wLZP -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
