operating-system: HassOS 7.3 does not boot on Intel NUC (i5-10210U)

Describe the issue you are experiencing

After upgrading to HassOS 7.3 on the i5-10210U NUC, boot would hang at a random point each time without taking keyboard input (once upon loading i915 frame buffer, once at a Mounted systemd ...).

A few failed boots in, it rolled itself back to 7.2, and it boots again. Yay for A/B installs!

What operating system image do you use?

generic-x86-64 (Generic UEFI capable x86-64 systems)

What version of Home Assistant Operating System is installed?

7.3

Did you upgrade the Operating System.

Yes

Steps to reproduce the issue

  1. Use a 10th Gen Intel NUC with 7.2 installed.
  2. Upgrade to 7.3.
  3. Potentially, the device fails to boot.

Anything in the Host logs that might be useful for us?

Found one Google result regarding newer Linux 5.10 LTS kernels hanging during boot on Intel systems: https://forum.manjaro.org/t/after-updating-to-kernel-5-10-93-from-5-10-89-the-computer-freezes-at-lenovo-logo/100852

Pretty sure I found the culprit of this issue, it seems that a Intel WiFi patch broke those systems. The regression has also reported for newer kernels just last Friday on the mailing list: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20220204061104.5851831a@valencia/

@timborino thanks for the pictures, the stack trace was very helpful in finding the issue!

BXNUC10i3FNH1 wouldn’t boot after update from 7.2 to 7.3.

Nortek HUSBZB-1, Google Coral, and APC UPS are the only devices connected to the NUC.

I ran the update from the GUI this morning and the system never came back online. Screenshot 1 is how I found the system after attaching a monitor. Keyboard was unresponsive and I had to hold power button down to cycle power. 1

System locked up again (screenshot 2).2

Powered up again with all USB devices disconnected except the keyboard. System locked up again (screenshot 3).3

Cycled power again and system came back online with version 7.2.

I removed 7.3 from the stable stream for generic-x86-64 for now.

For me 7.4 is still freezing during boot. Hast to be a different issue in my case, since I am not passing through the wifi card so the fix shouldn’t work anyway.

edit: just killed the vm, rebooted it and now it booted fine with 7.4. before rebooting it got stuck at this point: hassos74_freeze

Similar here with a 10i5FNK1. Was able to revert back to 7.2 after a few failed boots

Thanks timborino. I was stuck at the same NTP service. I disconnected my UPS (only USB device other than the keyboard) and after two restarts finally got past this:

Not sure if it was the number of restarts or disconnecting the UPS but my system rolled back to 7.2 as well.

@robertboccia is it also 10th gen?

Good to hear that this helped here!

Hm, I have a NUC7i3DNHE which I think is a 7th Gen NUC, that successfully updated. That link seems not to crash randomly though.

So it would completely hang? Did you had to reset the system manually then?
