kernel lockdown
Last modified: 2024-07-24 12:22:57 UTC
2024/07/22 After system update with kernel update I get kernel lockdown. I assume this a safe boot issue. It has happen several times with Tumbleweed after kernel update, so I installed Leap 15.6 thinking it would improve stability. Is this a problem with my computer? Is there a way to recover? I can use a previous snapshot, but then it is impossible to update: <html>Package failed to install:<br/><br/>Subprocess failed. Error: RPM failed: Command exited with status 1. History: - error: can't create transaction lock on /usr/lib/sysimage/rpm/.rpm.lock (Read-only file system) </html> Is there any way to disable the secure boot (or is it even safe)? I have lost count of the times I have reinstalled the OS during the past year and would like some stability. Would I have the same problems with Kubuntu (although I hate it)? Thank you for your patience. George
Sounds like you're using btrfs and transaction update or booting with a read-only snapshot? How did you boot the system at all? Did it boot properly?
It booted without a problem from the snapshot.
When you boot from a snapshot, the system directory would be root-only: https://doc.opensuse.org/documentation/leap/archive/15.0/reference/html/book.opensuse.reference/cha.snapper.html#sec.snapper.snapshot-boot So it's the designed behavior. You need to do a proper roll-back procedure via "snapper rollback".
