[SOLVED] System hangs on boot, reinstalling Arch doesn't help

After a recent upgrade (including the kernel), my system hangs on boot. I have an Asus K40IN laptop, about 2 years old. I've been running Arch for the life of the computer and never had any (serious) problems.
I booted into a live Arch environment, tried rebuilding the mkinitcpio image, didn't work. Tried downgrading the kernel, didn't work.
I then assumed it was just some software issue that I couldn't figure out, so I reinstalled Arch. No change.
Here's what my screen looks like when it hangs:
Any ideas would be very much appreciated. I'm completely stumped here.

jnguyen:
I have another arch system, a desktop, that I tend to keep pretty much in sync with my laptop. So I can look in the logs on that system to see what was upgraded. The other notable packages in that upgrade were probably udev, initscripts, and mkinitcpio. I will try downgrading those.
Leonid.I:
I'm using the 2010.05 arch release, which has kernel 2.6.33. I see two cores in the live env, as I should, and there's nothing to suggest any problems in the logs.
I'm actually now getting a completely different hang screen:
Of course I don't know what this one means either...

Windows XP hangs while booting

Hi everybody
I am currently experiencing severe Windows XP SP2 boot problems!
My system is a MacBook Pro with Intel Core 2 Duo 2.4 GHz. Here is some more system Information:
* Model Identifier: MacBookPro3,1
* Boot ROM Version: MBP31.0070.B02
* SMC Version: 1.16f8
* RAM: 4GB
I have installed MacOS X (10.5.1) and Bootcamp. In addition I have installed Windws XP SP2 (German). Currently use and have installed NO additional hardware drivers apart from the BootCamp ones.
The system hangs sporadically when I boot (using Boot camp) under windows. Windows XP freezes mostly during the initial startup (before the log-in). Sometimes however it freezes after I have logged in and have performed a few operations. These hang-ups happen almost 95% percent of the time. Yet after a couple of new starts and safe mode boots I am able to log in. I would also like to mention that I cannot log in when I boot at safe mode because the built-in MBP keyboard does not work; so I just stop at the log in screen and restart.
thanks for the help in advance

I just fixed a Dell Inspiron laptop with a similar boot hang problem. The machine would hang if the iPod was plugged in the USB port, or even a powered USB hub. The machine is 5 years old and is USB 1.1
The machine would hang in the boot sequence right before it would go to Windows start part. I took USB completely out of the boot sequence and that didn't do it. What did do it, based on a suggested fix from a Dell guy.
With the iPod unplugged, here is the Dell suggestion which might help some but not this Dell (keep reading below for the fix that worked):
1. Restart the System. (Unplug the IPod from the system)
2. Tap <F2> at the Dell Logo to access the BIOS.
3. Go to the Advanced Tab, and disable the USB legacy support.
4. Save the changes and exit.
But on the 1100 that I was working on, it had a older bios and used the Alt-P procedure to page through BIOS options. On page 3, there was a USB Emulation option. If you read the description, there is no way one would think that this would have an effect. I changed this to Disabled and that allowed the machine to boot with the iPod plugged in.
I hope this helps someone. If your machines hangs before windows starts, get into the BIOS and go to work!! Tom [email protected]

Initramfs seems broken, system hangs at boot after gummiboot menu

Did a full system update yesterday, and when rebooting the system hanged directly after the gummiboot menu with a black screen and a rainbowlike-colored bar in a pattern that looks like pink noise covering the top 10% of the screen. It seems to be a problem when loading the initial ramdisk. I have tried rebuilding with mkikitcpio, tested downgrading the kernel and rebuilding initramfs, triple-double-checked the filenames, and even verified that it doesn't look like that when the filenames are wrong. I also tried simply reinstalling the latest kernel from a chroot, but it didn't help.
I have pinned down the problem to the initial ramdisk, but can't figure out what else to do with this. I don't really want to do a full reinstall if it's possible to avoid. The system is a lenovo thinkpad w530 and I boot arch linux in uefi mode using gummiboot.

Unfortunately, no, I still use EXT4 on my system. However, what do you mean when you say "got unmarked as the default one"? Is that something local to rEFInd, or what do you mean?
I have tried downgrading to Linux 3.7.5-1, but that did not help unfortunately. My system worked with 3.7.5-1, when I upgraded to 3.7.6-1 it stopped working, and downgrading didn't help. I'll try downgrading to a 3.6 version though.

You should ask Oracle support for help. There's only one entry for this error stack (Bug 3361288 - Export of XMLSCHEMA may fail with ORA-24324 in UTF8), but it should have been fixed for your DB version and , as far as I can see, you don't have a Unicode database.

System hangs while retrieving nearly 80,000 records in HTML output

Hi Users,

[Solved] UEFI. System hangs on boot after successfully activating swap

Alright.
Unnecessary Background:
I've been using Arch for years. I just bought a stupidly good computer with a bunch of specs that I don't think are relevant, except for the fact that I am using an X99-pro. It has RAID support, but I am not using that currently. I bought all the parts and finished constructing it this morning (I live in Japan, so that was a while ago). Normally, I have no problems with installation; however, I wanted to do this one UEFI mode. After booting into the live disk, I checked to make sure everything was working as it should. Arch recognized my graphics card, most of my ram (one of the cards is a bit finicky for some reason), my SSD and HDD, along with the built-in WiFi (although it is an annoying broadcom one, so I need to install the driver separately later). Now, there are plenty of sources of error in here:
Problem:
I got through the arch installation and tried gummiboot. It would hang every time after successfully activating swap. I tried grub, too, but had the same problem. Because gummiboot is much less cumbersome, I switched back to that. Interestingly, systemd will sometimes recognize my drive twice before activating swap, and if I edit my fstab to ignore the swap completely, it hangs on the next step with is mounting the boot partition. I would like to point out that because I am not able to successfully boot my system, I cannot provide the exact messages for you guys, which may pose a problem.
Solutions I have tried:
1. Chrooting / mkinitcpio -p linux
2. modifying fstab / removing swap from it completely
3. fresh re-install
Sources of error:
1. Construction. Everything seems appropriate on the live usb, but maybe there is a problem in which ports I used for the SSD and HDD
2. UEFI. It could be that UEFI just doesn't like mounting multiple things and freezes up when put on the spot.
3. Legacy. It could be that this is not a problem with UEFI or my construction, but something I missed in the installation.
Additional info:
Partitioning scheme:
sda1: ~500MiB boot / EFI partition
sda2: ~4G swap
sda3: ~110G /
sdb: ~2T, untouched (for storage later)
I apologize for any typos and hope it was readable. I am super exhausted and going to take a nap. I'll check back in on this in the morning.

Please post the output of:
# gdisk -l /dev/sda
lsblk -f
And the contents of your gummiboot loader.conf and arch.conf (or whatever you've called it).
Post the output of the commands after you have mounted all your partitions and (arch-)chroot'd into your system.
You can use wgetpaste to post the outputs, as described by @ewaller here:
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php … 8#p1500528
Alternatively, pipe the command output to a text file and export it (using a live distribution or a USB stick).
You should remove swap from your fstab -- systemd mounts it automatically anyway.

System Hangs on Boot

Hi,
I have 2010 Macbook Pro I5 that we installed a 256GB SSD in a while ago. The system was upgraded to Mountain Lion a week ago and all worked well.
Last night after the software update the machine rebooted and now hangs with a clear grey screen.
When booting with 'Option Key' and going into the disk utilities function it seems as if the mount point for the root file system is altered from :/ to :/Volumes/Macintosh SSD.
How do I change the mount point.
Thanks for your help

Not really, but did your macbook boot up normally after that?
try to open your system preference > start up disk > and select your mac os system folder.
try to repair permission by opening application / utilities / disk utility / repair permission.
insert your installer disk #1, boot up while pressing C, and once it boot up, upen utilities / disk utility / repair disk.
open your system preference > account > login item tab, and uncheck the application that you don't want to start automatically during start up.
Resetting PRAM and NVRAM
Shut down the computer.
Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
Turn on the computer.
Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
Release the keys.
Hope that will speed up your start up process.
Good Luck.

Dual G5 hangs while booting from internal hard-disk

Hi,
When I switched my Dual G5 (2x2.5GHz around 15 months old, 1.5GB ram, 160GB hard disk, OS 10.4.6) on yesterday, it wouldn't boot from the internal hard disk. The spinning "wheel" (under the Apple logo) didn't show up and after a couple (5? 10?) of minutes the fans started making more noise than they ever did. I tried again with the same result.
It did boot from CD though and the disk was accessible. Disk Utility didn't report a problem and the hardware test neither. Subsequent rebooting from the internal hard disk failed again.
Then I reinstalled 10.4 (with archive & install), but with the same result. Then I got a Firewire drive from the computer support department, formatted it, installed 10.4 and copied (nearly) the entire internal hard disk's content to it. I was able to work normally from that disk.
Then I booted again from the 10.4 installation disk, formatted the internal drive, reinstalled 10.4 and then it did boot from the internal drive. I migrated all my files and now everything is working again (although a few things might have gone missing). And I lost nearly a day of work.
I conclude from this that it wasn't the disk, but that somehow an essential part of the boot software got damaged.
My question: how did this happen? What could have caused it? Is there someone with a similar experience (i.e., failure to boot from disk while the disk is still ok)? Is there any way to prevent it from happening again?

we have g5s the same as you. the few times we've ever had an issue with them refusing to boot up have been solved by running diskwarrior. it's an utter 'must have'.
it's a harsh fact that drives (and the operating system that sits on them) do fail from time to time. careful housekeeping (repairing permissions regularly, running disk utility repair and/or diskwarrior) will help to prevent any major problems.
if you have an issue that can't be fixed by doing these things (and we just had one with a file sharing problem) the best course of action is a full reinstall.
we keep a fw800 drive with the latest installers of every application we use handy in each room for this purpose. it's time consuming to stay on top of but worth it when it all goes pear-shaped.

Multiple cPCI Graphics cards - System Hangs during Boot

We have 2 Kontron dual output CP332 cPCI graphics cards to install into a NI PXI rack in order to give us 4 graphics outputs.
When one card is installed it acts as the Primary graphics card and it is required to disable to NI on-board graphics card in order for this to boot and function correctley.
If a 2nd Kontron CP322 card is added the system will hang during WinXP boot, as it switches from VGA to SVGA mode.
Disabling the 2nd card via device manager allows the system to boot.
Re-enabling the 2nd card once booted, then configuring with the ATI driver application allows the 4 graphics output to work as expected.
If the system is re-powered it will once again hang during WinXp booting.
Is there anything that can be configured on the NI Embedded PC (BIOS) to prevent this ?
Is there anything in windows that can be set to prevent this ?
Can we control the windows device manager from labview in order to enable/disable the 2nd card after power-on and before shutdown.
many thanks

Hi Scott,
I have some more information for you regarding your issue. We have tested the Kontron CP332 with the PXI-8196.
However when we tested the setup, we had 3 monitors working, the on-board graphics and the dual output from the card.
Until we get the on-board graphics working with a single CP332 I don't think we will get bot CP332's working.
So these are the steps to get on-board graphics working with a single Kontron card the steps come from talking to our PXI Product Support Engineer:
"The first thing you need to make sure is that you are using the
driver for Windows XP, and not the one for Windows 2000. Here's a link
to the driver download page:
http://us.kontron.com/index.php?searchword=cp+332&id=363
Notice that the first two driver downloads look just the same, but if
you hover over them and look at the url, you'll notice that the first
one is for Windows 2000 (w2k), and the second one is for Windows XP
(wxp). So, just make sure you are using the second one. The PSE did
mention that she was initially using the Win 2k driver, and was having
some issues with it hanging and all. Here's the information she sent me
about how she was able to get things working:
"Here is the info. My controller has BIOS version 1.3 but have him try this first before updating the BIOS.
The Kontron Board is the CP 332. I was able to get all three monitors working with the PXI-8196.
Configuration steps:
1) Insert both the controller and the kontron board in the chassis.
Note: When the computer is starting it will give you the Windows boot
up screen on the DVI 1 on the Kontron board and then give you the login
screen on the monitor connected to the 8196 so make sure you still have
a monitor connected to the controller.
2) Cancel the NI installation wizard if it comes up.
3)
Unzip the drivers and run the setup.exe file. Make sure you install
both the ATI display driver and the ATI Control Panel. (Check the zip
name to make sure you have the xp version of the driver)
4) After
restart go to the Display Properties and under the Settings tab you
should have monitors 1 and 2 on Mobility Radeon 9000 (Kontron CP-332)."
If you don't have BIOS version 1.20 or higher, please upgrade to BIOS version 1.30, if you need to upgrade the BIOS please make sure you fully understand the readme file. Then follow the steps above to enable triple output on the graphics cards.
When you have this working please try adding the second Kontron card.

Screen hangs while booting from Install disk

I'm trying to install 10.3.1 using my original disks onto an iBook G4 I bought from eBay that has 10.3.9 on it. The iBook works fine, but I don't have the administrator password and the seller has long along stopped answering my emails. I'm installing 10.3.1 simply to do a clean install and reset the admin passwords.
However, when I startup and press 'C' and insert the disk, the computer hangs on the initial Gray screen with the Apple. There's no whirling dial. It's just a frozen screen. In fact, the apple looks off center and I can see a thin strip of multi-color pixels. It doesn't do that when it boots up from the hard drive.
Any ideas about what's wrong?
iBook G4

Hi Kaushik!
If the Panther install CDs, look like THESE, they should work.
But, if you used those same CDs, to install Panther on another Mac, that is still using that OS, it is against the Software Liscense Agreement, to install it on the iBook.
