Bug#1100895: linux-image-6.1.0-32-amd64: Failed to start systemd-journald.service/start, timeout, repeatedly killed, no boot possible



Package: src:linux
Version: 6.1.129-1
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: zb-public@mnet-online.de

Dear Maintainer,

after a fresh installation from a netinst usb flash drive, version debian-12.5.0-amd64-netinst.iso, 
the system did not boot because it went into a loop that repeatedly failed to start job
systemd-journald.service.

I managed to eventually boot the system by telling grub not to boot using
linux-image-6.1.0-32-amd64 (default) but
linux-image-6.1.0-18-amd64 (chosen manually),
which was the second choice still available in grub's start-up menu.

I am aware that the kernel may not be the package that is the actual root cause. However, I chose
linux-image-6.1.0-32-amd64 as the affected package because choosing an older version made the
problem disappear.

I believe this "fix" was available because my netinst iso was already a bit older and during the
installation, a newer kernel version was installed and used as a default by grub.

When re-installing from a new netinst image (debian-12.10.0-amd64-netinst.iso),
linux-image-6.1.0-32-amd64 was the only option available to grub, and I could not use
an alternative version to start the system.

This was displayed during the boot process:

[  *** ] Job systemd-journald.service/start running (1min 19s / 1min 19s)
[  *** ] Job systemd-journald.service/start running (2min 49s / 2min 49s)
[  189.455547] systemd [1]: systemd-journald.service: State 'stop-sigterm' timed out. Killing.

This continued in a loop-like fashion until it repeatedly [FAILED]:

[FAILED] Failed to start systemd-journald.service/start - Journal Service.

-- Package-specific info:
Other than the messages above, I was not able to find any output that appeared to be relevant.
