Good morning,

Did an update late Friday before leaving for home. This morning I see the server isn't available - first thought "there goes the kernel!"

Here's the error I get during the upgrade:

Code:

Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm a little out of my depth here ;)

Looks like your previously manually installed a driver (not provided by Proxmox) named "scap" and it's not compatible with the new kernel. Where did you get it, and maybe they can provide you with a newer version?
This is not Proxmox or "scap" (whatever that is) specific and happens a lot with drivers that are not (yet) included in mainline Linux. There are similar threads about NVidia, RealTek, i915 and vendor-reset drivers.

Yeah, no idea what SCAP was for. I removed it and was able to finally reboot with the new kernel update.
 
Just want to add, I updated Proxmox today, which also included new kernel (6.8.4-3-pve). On reboot the system wouldnt come up at all. Managed to reboot into an older kernel, found this thread and https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/p...does-not-boot-cannot-find-root-device.145764/ both mentioning non Proxmox driver install could be the problem. For my system, the only non PVE drivers that I have installed are for Nvidia card and PCIe Coral.
To fix the issue, while on the older kernel I installed updated Coral drivers (following instructions at https://docs.scrypted.app/installation.html#coral-m-2-pci-drivers), rebooted into 6.8.4-3 and all now working fine :) Thanks @leesteken for pointing us in the right direction for a resolution
 
I'm having a similar problem due to a bad driver install. Could you share how to create the make.log file to see the specific file that is causing the issue? I've tried searching, but no luck.
Thanks!
