Re: laptop doesn't start after kernel update

Chroot in and read pacman's log for the update and the journal for the failed boot.

Re: laptop doesn't start after kernel update

No idea, the first step is to work out what the problem actually is. Jason gave you some tips on how to get started on figuring that out. Report back here with the information you have been directed to if you need some help working it out, but don't expect the community to have a magical cure-all that fixes all your problems with no effort on your own part.

Re: laptop doesn't start after kernel update

As Jason suggested, you'll want to boot from your install media, mount your root partition somewhere, /mnt is convenient, and run "arch-chroot /mnt" to change into the root of your system. This should be familiar from when you did the installation and is covered in the install guide. Then take a look at your logs with journalctl and in the file /var/log/pacman.log for clues. If you're not sure what they mean, post the relevant parts here.

While you are at it, if the problem is not easily fixable you may want to install the LTS kernel while you are in there and see if that will boot so you will at least have a useable system. You'll need to mount your boot partition before you can do that from the chroot.

Re: laptop doesn't start after kernel update

Once you can, start after brute force. He asked me to install some updates and it appeared.

The message is "echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_timeout_secs”.

Sorry for the quality of the image. Then he hung up and went back to it!

Re: laptop doesn't start after kernel update

Would recommend downgrading_the_kernel or install the linux-lts so you have a bootable system again.  This is just a workaround not a fix for the issue.
Edit:
Then see my comments for what might be the same issue https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php … 9#p1687029

Re: laptop doesn't start after kernel update

I run this command "journalctl -b" and got this log file, here is only one part, because the file is quite large.

If it is a 4.9.x problem just use lts until upstream fixes the issues assuming it's kernel related.
