Hey there, I could use a little help.
I’m running Kubuntu 24.10 (the non-LTS variant) and after some system updates through KDE’s Discovery, I’m unable to boot.

First off, some specs:
Kernel: 6.11.0-14-generic
GPU: GTX 1080 w/ proprietary drivers, version 560 550 stable

I was first greeted with these lines:
[ TIME ] Timed out waiting for device dev-disk-by/x2duuid-[...].device
[DEPEND] Dependency failed for mnt-games.mount

This is not the first time this happened, so I went into recovery mode, opened /etc/fstab to comment out the device-specific line, saved, and rebooted.

The error disappeared, however the system still won’t boot and I’m left with these entries visible on screen (abbreviated for clarity):

[ OK ] Started cups.service
[ OK ] Reached target printer.target
[ OK ] Started ipp-usb.service
[ OK ] Finished NetworkManager-wait-online.service
[ OK ] Reached target network-online.target
[ OK ] Started update-notifier-download.timer
[ OK ] Started update-notifier.motd.timer
[ OK ] Reached target timers.target
[ OK ] Started cups-browsed.service
Starting kerneloops.service
[ OK ] Started kerneloops.service
[ OK ] Reached target multi-user.target\
Starting power-profiles-daemon.service
[ OK ] Started power-profiles-daemon.service
[ OK ] Reached target graphical.target
Starting systemd-update-utmp-runlevel.service
[ OK ] Finished Starting systemd-update-utmp-runlevel.service

…and then nothing.

I need to leave, I’ll fix the formatting and provide further information as soon as I’m back at my desk.

    Are you able to plug in a USB with a live iso and troubleshoot from there?
