I think I have a similar issue. After upgrading (to Linux-current 6.0) FDE prompt is not showing -- no boot is happening. I tried the following:

  • https://getsol.us/articles/troubleshooting/boot-rescue/en/ -- no broken packages
  • Install on a spare SSD -- after upgrade same issue
  • Upgrade went well on a Thinkpad laptop (with FDE) and a NUC (no FDE)
  • Tried to boot the workstation with the NUC SSD -> worked well
  • Tried to downgrade via sudo eopkg history -t #before upgrade to Linux-current 6.0 -- did not work

The issue seems to be with FDE (luks/cryptsetup)

Host: Z170XP-SLI
CPU: Intel i7-7700K (8) @ 4.500GHz
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080

      Thank you.
      Updated today to 6.0.9 on a System76 Thelio and all is working well.

      brent thanks for your hard work ReillyBrogan and crew....no hiccups, smooth update for Budgie.

      That's for sure. Smooth and hiccup-free for Budgie, GNOME, MATE and Plasma here as well. Four laptops, three desktops, and four VMs with Solus editions updated. Sure gotta love this distro!

          WetGeek I thought we'd be kicking the tires on a 5.15/5.16 variant for a few more months so this is great news---kinda paves the way for a new .iso I'd have to think.

              WetGeek Rumor has it there are FOUR new .ISO files in our future

              I've heard this echoed in a couple of places - where is this coming from? I don't recall any discussion on IRC about updating the ISO.

                  WetGeek So full install, minimal, netinstall and server 😉

                      [deleted] You know, a headless version wouldn't be a bad idea. It would be a good way around having dated packages bork installs like with the current issue with some Nvidia cards. That way a person could just install, update from CLI, then install the DE of their choice.

                        What DE would your full install come with?

                            Solus Pantheon.

                            I've been using Elementary for a week but I'm starting to miss Solus' speed.

                              @darkness @siru There's a tracking task for the FDE issues here. I'm going to create some test kernels with potential fixes shortly, but I do need additional information to make sure I get the right drivers rebuilt for you (I'll post it there).

                              riffer I've been using Elementary for a week but I'm starting to miss Solus' speed.

                              What are you waiting for!? Switch back asap! We have a new shiny kernel here! 😏

                                  Folks, could we keep this thread mostly on track please? I'm reading every entry looking for issues and the less noise around that the better. Feel free to open a new thread if you want to talk about future ISO ideas.
