Stuck After Update? Troubleshooting Kernel 6.8.5-1 Boot Issues

I know I can fix the problem with the latest LTS kernel as I explained above. No objection, as you will know if you have read the post about Plymouth and what I mean.

I bring this up because you may be interested, and if you know what you are interested in, it won't let you. I use the latest kernel if I've done it myself when installing.

Issues should be reported even if they don't cause major problems or obstacles for users.

Okay, another version later. I'm not familiar with Pamac, but Pacman is

sudo pacman -Syuu

•  sudo mhwd-kernel -l
•  cat /proc/cmdline
•  cat /etc/mkinitcpio.conf
•  pamac info plymouth

You can probably recreate them all with something like

sudo pacman -Syu $(pacman -Qnq)

Microcode has been introduced in mkinitcpio v38 Manjaro Stable is still in version 37. 3 If they are in the stable channel, they will not miss a single hook.
