I recently upgraded several systems from gentoo-sources-5.10.76-r1 to 5.15.11, using my usual approach
copy current config to new sources make oldconfig all modules_install install run dracut reboot All worked well except my desktop, which just sits there showing EFI stub: Loaded initrd from command line option So the bootloader has loaded the kernel but then there is absolutely nothing. I tried removing the initrd option, but then it went straight to a blank screen without the above message. I left it for a while, in case it was just a case of no output, but nothing happened, not disk or network activity, nothing. I tried using make olddefconfig instead, but it made no difference. The old kernel still boots normally. With nothing, literally, to go on, I am stumped here. This is my working /proc/cmdline, the only change is in in the version numbers initrd=\amd-uc.img initrd=\initramfs-5.10.76-gentoo-r1.img root=LABEL=loon rootfstype=btrfs rootflags=rw,noatime,ssd,space_cache rd.shell net.ifnames=0 nopti init=/lib/systemd/systemd -- Neil Bothwick Experience is what you get when you didn't get what you wanted.
