Hello again,
I tested the new kernel version that has recently migrated to Debian
testing.

Unfortunately, I get the same exact boot failure.

And no useful output on the serial console, even with
'earlyprintk=ttyS0' and without 'quiet':

    Booting a command list

  Loading Linux 4.12.0-1-686 ...
  Loading initial ramdisk ...

and then nothing else.


Please note that, after the test, I again booted the machine with the
old Linux 4.9.0-3-686 and noticed "recovering journal" for the root
partition among the boot messages.
Hence, I suppose the root filesystem was mounted in read/write mode
during the failed boot of Linux 4.12.0-1-686.
I don't know whether this piece of information may be useful in order
to pinpoint the issue...

Please let me know, in case you need any further information and/or in
case there's some progress on this bug.

Thanks for your time!

Bye.
