[Xen-users] Stretch Boot Failure, 2

[ray@xxxxxxxxx]

[Re-written for clarity]

 

Xen boot fails. During boot, there is a note on missing wireless driver and than on a video error. The video error is repeated continuously and I can only stop it by turning the laptop off.

 

I can boot into Debian at the boot selection.  There is a  boot error for the wireless but boot completes.  But wireless does not work.

 

History:

Debian 9 was loaded onto the machine. 

Wireless drivers were loading during system installation.  The driver versions installed (as noted as missing on previous installation attempt), were:

iwlwifi-7265D-12.ucode

iwlwifi-7265D-13.ucode

iwlwifi-7265D-14.ucode

iwlwifi-7265D-15.ucode

iwlwifi-7265D-16.ucode

Wireless worked. 

 

Ran apt-get update.

Ran apt-get upgrade.

Xen 4.8.1 was loaded with ap-get.

 

Rebooted into Xen.  Wireless did not work.

Eventually got wireless working (only configuring /etc/network/interfaces).

Ran apt-get update.

Ran apt-get upgrade

Loaded xen-tools with apt-get

 

Rebooted OK.

Xen-tools worked.

 

Attempted reboot again but received error on loading wireless and display.

Wireless error:

[    10.722951 iwlwifi 0000:02:00.0: firmware:  failed to load iwlwifi-7265D-26.ucode (-2)
[    10.7xxxxx iwlwifi 0000:02:00.0: firmware:  failed to load iwlwifi-7265D-25.ucode (-2)
[    10.7xxxxx iwlwifi 0000:02:00.0: firmware:  failed to load iwlwifi-7265D-24.ucode (-2)
[    10.7xxxxx iwlwifi 0000:02:00.0: firmware:  failed to load iwlwifi-7265D-23.ucode (-2)
[    10.7xxxxx iwlwifi 0000:02:00.0: firmware:  failed to load iwlwifi-7265D-22.ucode (-2)

 

 Display error:

...[drm.gen8-irq_handler [i915]]  *Error fault  error on pipe A0x00000100

 

Since Debian boots with the wireless error, I am guessing that xen also should continue its boot.  So it seems the problem may be in the display error.  But googling the error, I have not found where this display error is fatal. 

 

Any suggestions on how to resolve this?

 

Just for reference, I found some related but not exact issues.  But I don't see a solution.

Maybe I should remove xen and reinstall.
