Boot stuck after kernel install

Post by Claudngtt » 2022/01/14 01:24:27

Hey guys!

I am super super new to Linux and I’m trying to install drivers for my motherboard Gigabyte Z690 UD DDR4 and I’ve installed kernel package.

If I try to boot the grub with it it gets stuck in this:

What exactly did you do? The exact commands that you ran in what sequence.

Did your system ever boot CentOS 7? If so then that kernel is almost certainly still installed and you can choose it when you first see the CentOS boot prompt (grub) just by hitting the down arrow to choose an older on.
The future appears to be RHEL or Debian. I think I'm going Debian.

CentOS 5 and 6 are deadest, do not use them.

Hi Trevor,

Here are the commands, after installing elrepo rpm:

sudo rpm -Uvh https://www.elrepo.org/elrepo-release-7 ... noarch.rpm
sudo yum --enablerepo=elrepo-kernel install kernel-ml
sudo reboot

I can boot CenotOS7 on the older grub but I need the package for the drivers.
Would you be able to advise?
