Finally I have successfully booted a kernel > 6.5.12-300.fc39.x86_64 on Fedora. Thanks to all who have helped and provided things to try. I added nomodeset to line, I guess I will have to add it to grub and make it permanent so I do not have problems.
olivares@fedora:~$ uname -a Linux fedora 6.7.4-200.fc39.x86_64 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Mon Feb 5 22:21:14 UTC 2024 x86_64 GNU/Linux olivares@fedora:~$
Nomodeset is never a proper solution. It's designed as a troubleshooting parameter and workaround to allow graphical mode system administration and log access. It kills performance. It disables displays other than the first. It usually reduces the screen resolution to something less than the display's ideal native mode.

If I remove nomodeset from the grub cmdline, the boot hangs and does not proceed. If I keep it, there is no sound. I have encountered problems before on other machine(s) where sound does not work on one kernel, but an update makes it work again(using hdmi). But here I am inexperienced with nomodeset parameter. I am happy that I can boot the new kernel, but the sound is not there, maybe a newer kernel can make it work, but I am unsure of what to expect. It is strange that these things happened, because before for two or three years it worked flawlessly.
I suggest you report a bug that 6.6 and 6.7 kernels are not bootable without using nomodeset, while 6.5 kernels work as expected without nomodeset.

You may try again to install inxi. If it fails again you may install directly from upstream: https://smxi.org/docs/inxi-installation.htm#inxi-manual-install Inxi is merely a perl script that collects and formats data that facilitates troubleshooting and solving bugs.
Once your kernel problem is solved, your sound problem may solve itself, as your issue is apparently graphics-related, to which HDMI sound is coupled. -- Evolution as taught in public schools is, like religion, based on faith, not based on science.

Output of inxi command olivares@fedora:~/Downloads/kerTeX/Documents/Documents/mptmp$ inxi -C --vs --zl --hostname inxi 3.3.32-00 (2024-01-30) CPU: Info: 6-core model: 11th Gen Intel Core i5-11400 bits: 64 type: MT MCP cache: L2: 3 MiB Speed (MHz): avg: 799 min/max: 800/4400 cores: 1: 800 2: 800 3: 800 4: 800 5: 800 6: 800 7: 800 8: 800 9: 800 10: 799 11: 800 12: 800
Hope bug is not trashed or marked not a bug. I would not have tried nomodeset if it was not suggested. Upon successful booting without using nomodeset maybe sound comes back.
