Please disregard this message. My additional muckings seem to have more or less fixed this including NOT saving journal files and using X to start gdm instead of Wayland.

Hello all--

I have 3 CentOs 8 kernels insalled on my new machine --

1. 4.18.0-193.14.2.el8_2.x86_6

2. 4.18.0-193.19.1.el8_2.x86_64 << using this one for this graphical boot

3. 4.18.0-193.28.1.el8_2.x86_64

Only #3 will boot without a *Virtual console can not start *error message but it hangs up trying to get into graphical mode, although it will boot to multi-user.

The first 2 seem to work reaosnably well in either graphical or multi-user but I get a *Virtual console can not start *in boot messages with both of these.

Does anyone know anything about this?

Having a heck of a time trying to prevent lock ups.

Thanks.
