When boot fails, the last couple lines of console output (retyped from a photo) are: Loading, please wait... Starting systemd-udevd version 252.39-1~deb12u1 I will begin bisection shortly. I happen to have also previously compiled 6.12.76 + stable-queue as of commit 4b2b2b5cf3cd78f4de4646687a4efecbd21643af, and that shows the same boot failures. That means the following patches are *not* to blame for the problem: net-sched-only-allow-act_ct-to-bind-to-clsact-ingress-qdiscs-and-shared-blocks.patch apparmor-validate-dfa-start-states-are-in-bounds-in-unpack_pdb.patch apparmor-fix-memory-leak-in-verify_header.patch apparmor-replace-recursive-profile-removal-with-iterative-approach.patch apparmor-fix-limit-the-number-of-levels-of-policy-namespaces.patch apparmor-fix-side-effect-bug-in-match_char-macro-usage.patch apparmor-fix-missing-bounds-check-on-default-table-in-verify_dfa.patch apparmor-fix-double-free-of-ns_name-in-aa_replace_profiles.patch apparmor-fix-unprivileged-local-user-can-do-privileged-policy-management.patch apparmor-fix-differential-encoding-verification.patch apparmor-fix-race-on-rawdata-dereference.patch apparmor-fix-race-between-freeing-data-and-fs-accessing-it.patch ext4-fix-potential-null-deref-in-ext4_mb_init.patch ata-libata-core-fix-cancellation-of-a-port-deferred-qc-work.patch ata-libata-eh-correctly-handle-deferred-qc-timeouts.patch ata-libata-cancel-pending-work-after-clearing-deferred_qc.patch ata-libata-eh-fix-detection-of-deferred-qc-timeouts.patch -- -Barry K.
