I think many on this list would be willing to help with this, if the
location were close enough. You might hunt for a local linux users
group, or other group of folks likely to be interested and willing to

Hm. If I'm reading the wiki right, it can't handle choice of run levels with a

What you describe may be a hardware problem, but it could also be related to
the kernel options enabled in the Live-USB media. I've had some MoBos
overheating when booting with one Live media OS, but not another. Chroot-ing
was OK, but trying to build anything thereafter ended up in

Has the links browser crashed other computers when used with speakup? If

I have had several system crashes trying a gentoo install.
These crashes involve the loss of speakup and no capability to resurrect
speakup either.
Further to that, when the system is shutdown it cannot be restarted
without use of the reset button additional to the power button.

Yes, after keywording several others, thus:

Hello list,
I've been using bootctl from sys-boot/systemd-boot for several years, with
some success, but I'm stuck after today's --sync.
First I was told I had to keyword sys-apps/systemd-utils, so I did that, but
now I get this, which I can't decode:
