[SOLVED] Hanging boot from USB on Dell Inspiron (10th gen intel)

Laptop configuration:

    10th Generation Intel i7-10510U
    16 GB, LPDDR3, 2133 MHz, Integrated
    512GB M.2 PCIe NVMe Solid State Drive
    NVIDIA GeForce MX250 with 2GB GDDR5

Arch image: 2019.11.01, kernel 5.3.8

Problem:

Cannot boot from USB. It goes well for some time, but then it reaches "Started Flush Journal to Persistent Storage" and halts. I cannot change to another tty nor access the journal (to try to see the full log, save it and paste back here)

Approaches so far:

Tried some different kernel flags, but no success:

    iommu=pt ([1])

    nomodeset i915.modeset=0 nouveau.modeset=0 ([2])

    i915.enable_rc6=0  ([3])

    loglevel=7 systemd.log_level=debug systemd.log_target=console console=tty1 sysrq_always_enabled=1 systemd.debug-shell=1 ([4])

    nvme_load=YES (#13 on [5])

When using `loglevel=7` I could not see any meaningful information, but can do again and try to copy some of the output here if necessary.

Just changing SATA from RAID to AHCI on the BIOS is also not enough ([6] )

Any ideas how I could proceed with this would be much appreciated. Thanks!

try using this kernel parameter

modprobe.blacklist=intel_lpss_pci

10th gen intel ref: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/De … n-1_(7390)
