They would start the boot process , which would then fail (Post hoc ergo
propter hoc?) I then installed Fedora 43 on both machines; however when
this was done two of my four mouses stopped working, the symptom being that
they appear+ to pair and connect (as reported by the systems), but that
moving the mouse doesn't move the cursor. Here's the breakdown:

Be careful about truncated lines from journalctl. Use --no-hostname to
shorten lines. Here:
% inxi -Ezxx

Search the Linux Hardware Database <https://linux-hardware.org> for your
hardware. Bluetooth is often enabled very early (before any OS is booted)
so you can use BT mouse and keyboard with the
UEFI/BIOS. There can be clashes between vendor firmware and new kernels.
Many vendors are slow to fix such issues. Does BT still work using a
Fedora 42 Live USB installer? Are you booting another OS?
