Greetings,
I’m trying to sort me out from NFS shares that are mounted randomly (sometimes it takes 4 or 5 reboots to have them mounted) since years now.
But it is getting worse at boot since I replaced the R7-370 that didn’t wanted to display nothing more than a black screen suddleny by a poor rx550 I could get to near nothing.
I installed amdgpu-pro.
I got a lot of drm messages displayed on the screen (not displayed before), and sometimes (here again it takes 4 or 5 reboots to have the login screen displayed) nothing more than screen flashes and nothing more than the mouse cursor and black screen beneath.
dmesg gives:

But it indicates nothing concerning the random failures at boot and concerning the slowness of the boot… where “before” it took 30 seconds at worse to have the desktop displayed, here it takes 2 or 3 minutes with different black screen
during the boot process when nfs decided to mount the drives.
Maybe something is wrong here:

I did not took pictures of the boot process nore filmed it… but I will if necessary.
