I tried enter-control-b on the serial console, escape-enter-control-b and maybe a few other related combinations. No effect. Pulling the plug and booting an old kernel worked fine. No need to wiggle wires or reseat connectors (apart from power). There was an earlier thread saying loader.efi needed to be updated, but /boot/loader.efi is current as of last night. Is something besides a normal installworld required? I tried manually copying loader.efi from the object tree to /boot, it seemed to make no difference. The stuck kernel sources are at 331137, world sources are about 24 hours older. The running kernel is r326343. Thanks for reading! bob prohaska
