Solus won't boot to greeter / login screen after installing updates

Girtablulu

you could try renaming SDA2 to SDA1, but i never tried this

Harvey I had the feeling that it would come back to me when I moved the partitions back then. Maybe I will have to take some time for a reinstall this weekend. Anyway, thanks for your input!

Girtablulu I have no idea what the consequences could be, but as my install is messed up anyway it might be worth a shot.

Hey all, I ended up rolling back to a previous update and my Solus is back to a working state. That's one alternative, if you don't have the time to do backups and reinstall at this time.

I might as well leave my system like that for now, until I find some time to play around and try upgrading again.

Cheers! 🙂

Have the same issue as well with a 750ti. Ran sudo eopkg up and checked for broken packages. Also tried rollback to previous up date which didn't work either. Running sudo eopkg remove nvidia-glx-driver-common worked to bring back to a working login screen. This PC also duel-boots with windows and uses uefi.

Then I checked uname -r and it was back on the lts kernel. So I reinstalled the nvidia drivers, pressed esc on boot and picked the last kernel which worked, which makes it the same solution to last breakage. Updated the clear boot manager, but the change didn't stick after reboot.
