That's all I can think of for now. Okay, it turns out that Devuan Jessie includes two extra modules that needed to be added to the Devuan Ascii /etc/initramfs-tools/modules file. I'm not sure exactly when those two modules become necessary (to add to the modules file), but until they were added the only way I could successfully get a working boot was via the rescue method using the older Devuan Jessie USB stick which always worked. This is the modinfo for these two extra modules: # modinfo evdev filename: /lib/modules/4.9.0-9-amd64/kernel/drivers/input/evdev.ko license: GPL description: Input driver event char devices author: Vojtech Pavlik <vojt...@ucw.cz> alias: input:b*v*p*e*-e*k*r*a*m*l*s*f*w* depends: retpoline: Y intree: Y vermagic: 4.9.0-9-amd64 SMP mod_unload modversions # modinfo xhci_pci filename: /lib/modules/4.9.0-9-amd64/kernel/drivers/usb/host/xhci-pci.ko license: GPL description: xHCI PCI Host Controller Driver alias: pci:v*d*sv*sd*bc0Csc03i30* depends: usbcore,xhci-hcd retpoline: Y intree: Y vermagic: 4.9.0-9-amd64 SMP mod_unload modversions Kind Regards AndrewM -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iHUEAREIAB0WIQTJAoMHtC6YydLfjUOoFmvLt+/i+wUCXTusfQAKCRCoFmvLt+/i +13lAPwKuYZzYsnZW+/N39rmDKCwQ8GNlKFvzumrUnHDb2zW4gD+N0UUZOHZN1S+ o23RI/5AusrgcfUE0H6/a8s6g3NEYhg= =X58/ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
