Having seen bookworm go to stable with this bug still present, I did some more digging.

Points at an earlier bug: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=867548#52


And applying their workaround, my issue disappears:


[ edit /etc/default/grub to add

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="intel_iommu=on,igfx_off"
]


However reading the forum post, it appears they hit the issue on upgrading to "bullseye"

I get the issue upgrading from "bullseye" to "sid (bookworm)".


Now, for me, this was very much "Monkey See, Monkey do"  I don't know what that line added to kernel boot args does, but:


1: Maybe it's avoiding something that broken  ..or

2: It is the correct option that should be added


I either case, something is broken. It works on one release, you upgrade, it breaks.


My initial guess would be something in the initrd generation or grub choices is going wrong during the install process.


Could somebody move this issue to a more sensible place (package) as it's unclear to me where the root problem lies (also tie to 867548 )
