can't boot Leap 15.4

MakeTopSite · 04-03-2023, 02:27 AM

I've booted OpenSUSE Leap 15.4 after switching BIOS to legacy mode yesterday. I made upgrade, rebooted Leap, everything was right.

Leap will not start today. Last message on the screen:

Code:

ACPI: button: Power Button [PWRF]

Other linux distros are working fine. Could it be related to this problem which has occured yesterday ?

We can't be expected to go fishing for relevant information about your configuration in other posts. What is an MSI G70? What hardware is this? Where did you install Leap? What is the partition structure? What does /etc/fstab contain? What does efibootmgr report, if it will run? Why did you switch the BIOS mode to legacy yesterday? What boot mode did you use to install Leap?

BTW, if you search opensuse.org you'll not find OpenSUSE anywhere, unless on a page where correct spelling is explained, which is four lower case letters followed by four upper case letters, like you find in my about, and in your own.

If you switched from bios to edit then you may not have an efi partition setup for openSUSE.

Booting problem was caused by

Code:

nvidia-drm.modeset=1

kernel boot parameter.

Legacy BIOS was used all the time - before installing openSUSE, during install and after that.

I did not switch BIOS from legacy to EFI. I don't know what caused the switching BIOS from legacy to EFI. I've suspicion low battery voltage caused that because some other BIOS setting has changed too.
