Re: stuck on “loading initial ramdisk …”

There's no trace of either nouveau (blacklisted by the nvidia package) nor nvidia.

Re: stuck on “loading initial ramdisk …”

You just enter that into a terminal.

Is windows still installed?
Did you shut it down properly? Or is it in hibernation/hybrid sleep?

Re: stuck on “loading initial ramdisk …”

Yes, windows installed
It’s shutdown properly, without sleep/hibernation

dkms status without chroot? bcz in chroot it just do not say anything

Re: stuck on “loading initial ramdisk …”

Yea, no - if you're booting the install iso, you first have to chroot into the installed system.

Re: stuck on “loading initial ramdisk …”

So the build of the kernel module failed or didn't happen.

Re: stuck on “loading initial ramdisk …”

Did you install nvidia-340xx or nvidia-340xx-dkms ?

Re: stuck on “loading initial ramdisk …”

i made dkms autoinstall and dkms status and both of them didn’t output anything

I installed nvidia-340xx, not dkms

Re: stuck on “loading initial ramdisk …”

The dkms package is probably wiser, but

pacman -Ql nvidia-340xx
pacman -Qkk nvidia-340xx
modinfo nvidia

(Yes, all from the chrooted system)

Re: stuck on “loading initial ramdisk …”

I reinstalled nvidia(I realised something went wrong while installing it, it made boot to the system but its in recovery(probably)
Can it be because of x11?

While reinstalling i were getting

dkms install —no-depmod nvidia/340.108 -k 5.18.10-arch1-1
/usr/bin/dkms: line 1033: sha512: command not found
/usr/bin/dkms: line 1033: sha512: command not found

==> depmod 5.18.10-arch1-1

Is that fine?
dkms status:
nvidia/340.108, 5,18,10-arch1-1, x86_64: installed
modinfo nvidia seems fine: http://0x0.st/o1eA.txt

seems incorrect according to eg. https://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Lin … chips.html and is likely a false positive because the GPU cannot be initialized.

Check windows and whether it denotes any errors/problems w/ the GPU, but either the battery can no longer fire it up or the GPU is fused.
But it doesn't respond to probes.

Re: stuck on “loading initial ramdisk …”

In furmark on windows i got max 90C and avg 85-88
i do not have battery
About the power, i use (converter?) from british bs 1363 to european (psu is for european)

All on windows 7 (games + stress test) seems fine and no any bsod or errors

Re: stuck on “loading initial ramdisk …”

You want to look at the windows device manager, not some random furmark. You might very well run all of this on the CPU.

i do not have battery

10de:0407 is G84M / GeForce 8600M GT - that's a mobile chip?

i use (converter?) from british bs 1363 to european

As much as I'd like to blame Boris' power grid, this is irrelevant.
The question is whether you receive enough current at the device, not about the wall outlet design.

Re: stuck on “loading initial ramdisk …”

I can see how this leads to some power supply issues…

Try to add "boot_delay=5" to the kernel to slow down the boot process and see whether that gets the nvidia chip reliably detected.
