Kernale acesss failed and many library crash messages after RHEL 7 workstation update
Dear RHEL community members,
I am using RHEL 7 workstation . A recent regular update has left me with difficulty in using my computer. Though I do update the system frequently, latest one has updated almost 900 packages and installed a new kernel module also.
rpm -qa kernel
kernel-3.10.0-229.11.1.el7.x86_64
kernel-3.10.0-306.0.1.el7.x86_64
kernel-3.10.0-229.7.2.el7.x86_64
Unfortunately, after this update, I failed to login with latest kernel (kernel-3.10.0-306.0.1.el7.x86_64) . While booting with latest kernel, systems get hung after prexcitinginting messages shown as in picture_1.jpg attached here.
Luckily, I could able to login with the previous kernel (kernel-3.10.0-229.11.1.el7.x86_64) , though booting from any kernel (including the newly installed one) initially show messages as in picture_2. Before this latest update, immediate messages print on the screen after kernel selection was about existing file systems in my harddisk and such messages are completely disappeared after the update. After log-in with the old kernel, I noticed that there is a huge difference in the appearance of the desktop, terminal etc and I experience frequent library crash messages pop-up on screen. I have seen that a large number of basic packages are updated, including genome, network-manager, Plymouth etc., etc. When I checked the latest updates with command 'yum check-update', yum terminated with showing the following messages below. Below I copied only few lines from the entire message body, which in total contains almost 815 related lines. Though I tried steps as mentioned in https://access.redhat.com/solutions/696833, it end up with the same problem.
I dont know what went wrong here and how theses updates completely changed my system arrangements, including changes in the booting steps. Can anybody please help me to figure out the issue here?.
Many thanks in advance
Aneesh
