Debian Kernel 6.1.0-35-amd64 does not boot
Posted: Mon May 19, 2025 8:49 am
Hello,
after today's updates (~90 packages) boot was stuck on black screen with blinking cursor.
6.1.0-34-amd64 still works.
my only dkms-package is broadcom-sta-dkms, which is needed for WiFi. The installation ran smooth without errors.
My QSI:
Could this be an issue with nouveau or is there a bug in the Debian kernel?
