Re: [gentoo-user] Kernel 5.16.3 fails to boot

2022-02-04 Thread Jack
Have you read the recent threads here?  Have you assured the appropriate 
FB (framebuffer)  config settings?  If those are not set, the system may 
actually boot, but you won't see any output. There was also a CPU 
related setting for a specific AMD processor (I didn't pay much 
attention, since it didn't affect me.)

Hi,

I have been built (and used successfully) nearly each kernel of the 
gentoo-source 5.x.x.


I've copie the old config to the new kernel directory and did "make 
oldconfig"


Suddenly with Kernel 5.16.{3,4,5} these kernels hang during boot.

Has anybody made a similar bad experience?
How can I find the culprit - hopefully without resorting to "git bisect"?

Many thanks for some hints,
Helmut.

P.S. I am running an AMD Threadripper with several NVME devices.
