[SOLVED] Updated Kernel Not Loading Modules

When I restarted my system after a full package update, my system threw the error

Task Failed: Load Kernel Modules

, after which I was moved to the TTY login screen, where I was unable to provide keyboard input, as the kernel drivers for my USB devices had not been loaded. I then proceeded to this thread here https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewforum.php?id=201229, but my boot partition was mounted when I ran the update. I used an installation CD to chroot into the enviroment, and reinstall the bootloader. However this did not solve the issue. Can anyone help?

After you chrooted in from installation media,  post the system journal to a pastebin and provide the link.

Re: [SOLVED] Updated Kernel Not Loading Modules

Try to add "ibt=off" the kernel parameters, https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Kernel_parameters
If that doesn't fix it, we'll need a journal from a failing boot of the installed system, https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/System … al_to_view

Re: [SOLVED] Updated Kernel Not Loading Modules

Thanks, That Worked! Seems like this caused the issue: https://www.reddit.com/r/archlinux/comm … ss_ibtoff/ However, it does not quite make sense, since this issue seems to only affect Intel GPUs and I am on AMD. Strange.

Re: [SOLVED] Updated Kernel Not Loading Modules

It affects kernel modules that don't support ENDBR (like nvidia) even though Indirect Branch Tracking is from intel and idk at hand whether AMD CPUs support it at all.
