Rebooting after an upgrade from 25.1.7_4 to 25.1.8_1 made my system stuck. It is configured as follows:
  • Primary console: Serial Console
  • Secondary console: VGA Console

I connected through the serial console after another reboot and saw the following output:

After the the last line, the system was simply stuck.

I changed the Console to "serial" by pressing '5' twice in the boot menu and then the machine would boot again. Same result when I choose to boot the old kernel from 25.1.7_4.

I then changed my console settings to Secondary console: None in Settings -> Administration -> Console and then I do not get the console vidconsole is unavailable no valid consoles! messages anymore at the boot menu. Booting OPNsense then works without intervention.

My system specs are:

  • Intel N100 (4) @ 806MHz
  • Alder Lake-N [UHD Graphics]

Anything else that I can provide to help debugging this issue?
