Having problems trying booting into Pop Os after todays updates.

I was able to boot into an old kernel. I used mainline to update to 6.4.11. Rebooted and was stuck again.

No longer able to boot into old kernel (makes sense)

Refreshed install. Can now boot. Applied all updates. Back to not booting.

Currently back in after another refresh but I won’t be updating.

AMD 5800X3D 32gb Ram AMD 7900

    Can you be more specific about what you mean by it won’t boot? Where or how is the computer getting stuck? How far into the boot sequence?

      It gets stuck after post is displayed. After post, it just goes black and then nothing comes through the monitors

        Here is a list of all the recent changes from yesterday:

        The only thing I can think of is the amd64-microcode update causing issues, though perhaps the linux-firmware could also be a culprit.

        Both have updates to AMD CPU and GPUs. Perhaps you can try updating everything but those two components when you have time to mess around.

          I held back the amd microcode from the update and it worked. Although now it says I’m pop shop update the I have firmware to install, not the microcode.

          Anyway, I’m happy I’m back up and running.

            Damn im having this same issue. The only way i can get into the GUI is if i add nomodeset to the boot. I have a 7700x CPU and a 7900xt GPU. Anyway to revert the updates or is it just best to refresh from recovery?

          Thanks for the help. I was thinking the same thing regarding the and microcode. I’ll see if I can hold those packages back from update.
