 |
|
I recently converted my workstation from BIOS to UEFI / grub2. My system boots (no console) and starts kde, but when I run the simple command ls -l in / folder I get KILLED. And some of my drives are not accessible.
octo-core / # ls -l
Killed
dmesg give me this:

My kernel:
mathias@octo-core ~ $ uname -a
Linux octo-core 4.4.39-gentoo #6 SMP Mon Feb 27 20:34:33 CET 2017 x86_64 AMD FX(tm)-8350 Eight-Core Processor AuthenticAMD GNU/Linux
I've tried different nvidia drivers but always get the same problem. Is there something wrong with my kernel configuration?

You use the Vesa framebuffer. I would prefer the Efi framebuffer to boot in Efi mode.
| Code: | CONFIG_FB_VESA=y
# CONFIG_FB_EFI is not set |
For stuff who compile Linux kernel modules like the proprietary Nvidia drivers, VirtualBox, etc, if I use the ~ version of them I use the ~ version of the Linux kernel too.
Look at Gentoo Forums :: View topic - [HOWTO] UEFI, nvidia - made simple(fb)

I've just compiled 4.9.6-gentoo and the errors in my first post are gone, my sata drives are accessible again 
Hmm, I thought nvidia didn't support the kernel EFI framebuffer? I still don't have a console, I tried with EFI enabled (vesa disabled) and EFI disabled but it does not seem to make a difference.
I'll try some more options, and have another look at the link you posted
