#18467 new bug

Kernel crashes right after booting

Description

While retesting an older ticket I opened (#17369), I encountered another bug. I am running on the same hardware when I had that ticket open, but I'll write it here for reference: AMD Ryzen 9 3900X, MSI B550 Tomahawk motherboard, GeForce RTX 2060 and 64GB of RAM. I'm using the UEFI loader and have flashed Haiku to a USB stick (no verification errors or anything).

When running normally without any additional boot options selected, Haiku will boot just fine, no graphical issues or anything. It is only when I get to the Welcome screen - which asks whether I would like to try or install Haiku - that the kernel seems to instantly crash and dump something to the screen. Unfortunately, I can't read this log screen because for some reason it is displaying in this awful and hard-to-see pink and green color. I have taken a few pictures of the screen which will be attached.

waddlesplash suggested I try to enable the fail-safe video driver, which unfortunately did not make a difference, same crash and pink-green dump.

However, turning on safe mode AND the fail-safe driver did allow Haiku to boot, and after selecting "Try Haiku", I was able to get to the desktop. CodyCam crashed (but that might just be safe mode-related), WebPositive and the file manager worked fine.

Component: - GeneralDrivers/Audio/emuxki

I can almost read the KDL! It's related to the "emuxki" audio driver, at least. The top line, however, is cut off, and that's probably the most important bit.

Got a better picture - again, my apologies!

You can probably boot successfully by blocklisting the "emuxki" driver.

I have pushed a potential fix in hrev57101, after that you should hopefully be able to boot without the driver blocklisted.

Posting this from inside WebPositive to confirm that disabling emuxki works and Haiku has booted successfully and all programs I have tried so far are working!

I wanted to mention one other thing - I looked further into emuxki, and it's a Sound Blaster Audigy-compatible driver - I actually have an Audigy Rx in my machine which I neglected to mention. Goes to show I need to improve my bug reporting, I suppose!

Thanks very much for the help. I'll test again on the next nightly build and report back.

I've tested again on the latest nightly and unfortunately the same error is occurring. I've taken another photo of the crash screen in case it's any different.

comment:6 by epa1257, 17 months ago

Of course, booting is still OK when blocklisting the driver

comment:7 by waddlesplash, 17 months ago

This one is actually a little different, it appears there's something else that needs to be adjusted.

Should be better after hrev57114

Apologies for no reply again. I tested again on hrev57184, same pink/green dump screen (though probably different as the last one was). Will upload a picture.
