I have upgraded from freshly installed 2025-06-26 image to most recent 2025-09-09 image and when booting the new image a kernel panic happened

regal jay
#

which image, and on what hardware?

junior garnet
#

and did you run any post-install steps

sterile sonnet
#

No

A second

#

CPU: 13th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-1355U (12) @ 5.oo GHz

#

GPU 1: Nvidia GeForce RTX 3050 4GB Laptop GPU [Discrete]

#

GPU 2: Intel Iris Xe Graphics @ 1.30 GHz [Integrated]

#

interesting

#

thanks

#

unfortunately this doesn't give me any clear ideas

#

assuming zero changes were made aside from updating

#

that makes me inclined towards nvidia shipping a bug

sterile sonnet
#

I can send the error message from before kernel panic

junior garnet
#

you could try binary searching the date tags

#

which look like :20250810

#

instead of :latest

sterile sonnet
junior garnet
#

from latest to a date

#

Then it says to press any key to continue

#

Kernel panic error is: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown block(0,0)

junior garnet
#

@sterile sonnet do you have secure boot enabled

sterile sonnet
#

No

junior garnet
#

and our key enrolled

junior garnet
#

well that will prevent nvidia drivers from loading

#

although it shouldn't cause the error in question

#

error: while pulling 20250810: Remote "kinoite-nvidia-open-hardened" not found

junior garnet
#

what command did you run

#

the rebase target should match the string in rpm-ostree status exactly aside from the tag

#

if you omit any part of it, it will break

sterile sonnet
#

Got it

#

Pulling currently

#

20250810 is okay

#

Testing 20250825

#

20250825 is okay

#

Testing 20250903

#

20250903 is not okay

#

Testing 20250829

#

20250829 is not okay

#

Testing 20250827

#

20250827 is okay

#

Testing 20250828

#

20250828 is okay

#

@junior garnet @regal jay the problem is between 20250828 and 20250829

regal jay
#

seems like it must be an upstream issue then, there weren't any secureblue commits on August 28-29 that could cause anything like this

sterile sonnet
#

Excuse me, how would one track down the issue causing it and how would one sent the report to upstream?

junior garnet
#

it will tell you which packages changed

sterile sonnet
#

I have found the temporary solution in the provided issue: disable the TPM chip in BIOS settings

#

I also checked the changed packages between 20250828 and 20250829, it was a kernel update

#

The root of the error has been found and the patch has been submitted last month, and is planned to be shipped in fedora 44

Which expected to release 2026-04-14
