Hello,

I'm attempting to come back to Gentoo after playing around with it 20 years ago.

Trying to get the hang of the install process for my desktop, I'm attempting a pretty basic installation on my laptop using as many binaries as I can and following the recommended programs for most options. After I complete the entire install, I attempt to reboot, and the boot process hangs after about 3 seconds, after detecting my USB ports. The symptoms looks almost identical to another forum post I found (https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-996074-start-0.html)

I am using grub with an LVM on LUKS configuration. I used gentoo-kernel-bin with dracut. I am able to put in my password to decrypt the drive. The output is frozen after the USB detection, but if I plug in a usb drive, it shows it, so it isn't frozen, it just seems like it's hanging trying to find something.

I did not set a VIDEO_CARDS entry in my make.conf because I'm using integrated graphics on a laptop, would that still need to be set to amdgpu if it's a Ryzen processor? What can I provide that's useful to people?

I'll try to be a little proactive:

dracut.conf
Code:

kernel_cmdline="root=uuid=aa2f58ed-de76-49a7-9ba0-49215a96abff rootfstype=btrfs rootflags=rw,relatime,compress=zstd,subvolid=256,subvol=/@ rd.luks.uuid=be79bede-d6c0-4dcd-b37b-9db9f274404b rd.lvm.vg=system rd.lvm.lv=system/root rd.lvm.lv=system/swap rd.lvm.lv=system/home"

I'd expect that you will need to set VIDEO_CARDS to something.

Based on your CPU, what integrated graphics does it use?
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_AMD_Ryzen_processors

You should be able to see what correlates to that hardware here:

Thanks for the reply!

Processor is a Ryzen 7 7840HS, so I believe it's an RDNA3. I added amdgpu into the video card section and added a use flag for amdgpu to the linux-firmware package and rebuilt, then did an emerge --config gentoo-kernel-bin just to be safe, but i am still having the same issue.

One thing I've noticed is if I let it sit at the screen where output is mostly frozen, after about 2 minutes, i start getting the following message over and over every second:

Code:

dracut: Scanning for all btrfs devices


which makes me think it's not detecting my drives for some reason

To be honest, I can't figure out what that AMDGPU guide expects.

You seem to be correct regarding RDNA3...
Quote:
Phoenix (7040 series, Zen 4/RDNA3/XDNA based)
Includes integrated RDNA 3 GPU.
Code:
Navi    NAVI31    RDNA 3       RX 7000
Code:
NAVI31    amdgpu/gc_11_0_0_{imu,pfp,me,rlc,mec,mes,mes1,mes_2}.bin amdgpu/psp_13_0_0_{sos,ta}.bin amdgpu/smu_13_0_0.bin amdgpu/dcn_3_2_0_dmcub.bin amdgpu/sdma_6_0_0.bin amdgpu/vcn_4_0_0.bin
So that would appear to be the firmware.

But if you're seeing output, then video shouldn't be the problem.

I don't have experience with LUKS or btrfs, so I can't help there.

Have you looked for any forum topics related to the scanning message?

Thank you, you pushed me in the right direction! After searching that and getting down a rabbit hole, I realized I never had sys-fs/cryptsetup installed, I just assumed it was because it's on the livecd, but was not in my chrooted environment! I had to add it to openrc to launch at boot, and add entries into my /etc/conf.d/dmcrypt file. I now have a working boot! Thank you!

It is pretty incredible to see how far Linux has come for the casual user. My issue was following what I did for my Arch install, which I guess holds my hand a little more than I thought and must add a lot of this stuff to the background automatically
