Thanks Thomas, that was indeed it. I upgraded pve-kernel-helper from 7.1-10 to 7.1-12 and the console output is working now. So, both the pve kernel and the pve-kernel-helper package need to be upgraded for this workaround. Thanks!
5.15.19-2-pve did not resolve the issue with no console output for me.
I had followed the work around above to add simplefb to /etc/initramfs-tools/modules, which successfully resolved the problem on both 5.15.17-1-pve and 5.15.19-1-pve.
I started on a node running 5.15.19-1-pve with the...
Thanks, this has restored my console output on both 5.15.17-1-pve and 5.15.19-1-pve.
I do still have issues with the host node hanging with i915 passthrough since upgrading to PVE 7.1 (it was stable on 6.x and 7.0), though I wouldn't expect the hangs to be related to simplefb. The host node...
Likewise for me, no console output after EFI stub: Loaded initrd from command line option, like I saw with pve-kernel-5.15.17-1. This time I typed my encryption passphrase in blindly and the machine booted normally. I'll have to test my i915 passthrough later.
Interesting! My root ZFS pool is encrypted and requires that I enter the passphrase on the console before the machine will boot, so it is certainly possible that this was happening... without any output on the console I wouldn't be able to tell the difference between an outright hang versus...
I was having issues with a kernel oops followed by process hangs on 5.13.19-4-pve (although my node running 5.13.19-3-pve seems to be stable - touch wood). Error attached. The issue was reproducible on two systems and triggered when my IPMI removing its USB device when I closed the remote KVM...
