Re: [qubes-users] new xen kernel 5.xx

2020-12-25 Thread Alex Smirnoff
Is there another way to boot to an older kernel rather than boot from other 
media and edit xen.cfg?

Re: [qubes-users] new xen kernel 5.xx

2020-12-21 Thread 'awokd' via qubes-users

haaber:

I have still instabilities with the xen kernels 5.x (sudden system
freeze). I also have a small /boot and hold only the last 3 kernels.
They are right now:

vmlinuz-4.19.155-1.pvops.qubes.x86_64
vmlinuz-5.4.78-1.qubes.x86_64
vmlinuz-5.4.83-1.qubes.x86_64

I would like to mark the (for me very stable) kernel 4.19.155 as "do not
erase while updating" and remove the (for me) useless kernel
vmlinuz-5.4.78-1.qubes.x86_64. How can I do that, please?  I fear to
make a mess when just "playing around". I also want to keep 5.x kernels
for appVM's (they work well).   Thank you!

I think I was able to keep an older version around before by (very 
carefully) uninstalling the middle version from dom0, as it keeps 3 
copies by default. I believe I used dnf and specified the exact version 
to remove.

I can (outside of Qubes OS) trigger a kernel freeze when the kernel 
starts swapping on a thin-provisioned LV. I think I wrote that to this 
list some time ago. You could also find some details at kernel.org's 
bugzilla.



They are right now:

vmlinuz-4.19.155-1.pvops.qubes.x86_64

I think you'll have to find out what actually makes your kernel freeze 
(if it freezes at all).
