All three hard drives/OS's have a different version of Grub2.  All three are dated the same day I upgraded Fedora 40 to 41.

My upgrade from F-40 to F-41 on a bare metal IBM LC912 (aka Boston) went OK, no problems booting after the upgrade. But I spoke with a colleague today and he reminded me some old(er) issues that were related to grub.cfg not being compatible with the parser in petitboot or grub-mkconfig failing to run (depends on petitboot / firmware version). I think that's what we are seeing here. If that's true, then the fix should be to recreate grub.cfg.

I agree in your assessment that it appears to be related to petitboot/grub.cfg.  Is there a help page somewhere that shows the proper way to recreate grub.cfg?

Not sure why my pics don't post directly, but I can't seem to attach files either.  I get this error.

"The upload folder is full. Please try a smaller file and/or contact an administrator."

My file is well under the limit.

All Fedora versions on sda and sdd as seen in the screen shot fault with initrd.  Since that screen shot was taken I have used Timeshift on sdd to rollback to before the F41 install.  Same results.  I wiped out sda and installed F41 from scratch, same result.  Then I tried to install F40 from scratch on sda.  The results of this endeavor are in this screen shot.

I will try to get system logs later today.

What exactly appears on screen? If you boot it from the BMC web interface, what appears on the virtual serial port output?

I can confirm MauryG5's issue.  When trying to update from 40 to 41 via console it would not install due to a "watchman" issue.  After being pestered via notifications to update I decided to give "Software" a shot at the update.  It installed 41 but now NO version of Fedora will load.  "Error loading initrd" is the error given.  Even after rolling back via Timeshift I get the same error.  On a side note that may be related, my openSUSE will start but is very slow and will not fill windows.  For example if I open any file browser I get the window outline but it is filled with the desktop image and no radio gadgets.

Firmware / Re: Firmware 2.10 for Talos-II and Blackbird available

With Skiroot now at 6.6 does this mean Btrfs will function correctly?

@MPC7500 If you blacklist the AST can you interact with Petitboot?

@All

Still waiting on my Support Request.  In the mean time I have replaced my 13 year old CoolerMaster 600W Silent Pro with a shiny new be quiet! Dark Power 12 750W Platinum.  Happy to have the new power supply, but unfortunately my quandary prevails.

@MPC7500,

Sadly that troubleshooting workflow does not directly apply to my situation but I have started a support request nonetheless.  I have also ordered a new power supply as well.

@SiteAdmin Thanks for your advice.  It is greatly appreciated.

I reflashed the PNOR and no change.  Just to rule it out I then reflashed the BMC to no avail.

@MPC7500 Thanks for your reply.

I have an extra BCM flash rom and have swapped it out.  No change, still locks up at the same place. 
I have the boot sequence set to boot from USB first if present and have tried a Fedora flash drive with the same results. 
If I am quick I can hit "Enter" on the default "Exit to shell" I get the the flashing prompt with about 3 flashes before it locks up. 
I have noticed "STB: VERSION verification FAILED" followed by "IMA_CATALOG verification FAILED" and "Error loading ucode lid. index=202d1" during boot.
I also noticed later in the boot sequence "Bootkernel verification FAILED".

Blackbird / Blackbird Down

« on: November 14, 2022, 12:37:37 pm »

Hello all,

Last week we had a large storm come through and took out our power for a 5 days.  Unfortunately my Blackbird was on when the power died.  Even more unfortunately it will no longer boot up.  It gets as far as where you choose which OS/kernel you want to use and it locks up.  Has anyone here run into this before?

Hi markr87, sorry but how does Tekken turn to you? I tried the old 2 and it already runs very slow and therefore lacks optimization, just as I said in the previous posts, how does it turn to you? I oh noticed the poor performance on both Tekken 2 and 3 and both Street Fighter 3 ... They all run very poorly compared to the X86 counterpart ...

@MauryG5, I just tried Tekken 2 ver.B and can sadly report it is very slow, no sound and coin buttons not responding.  I didn't spend any time trying to figure out sound and buttons.  I compared it to a cheap i5 system I picked up to run an arcade cabinet I am building.  The i5 runs it at normal speed.
