My apologies,

/boot:/dev/sda3 on /boot type ext4 (rw,relatime,seclabel,data=ordered)

Not (I agree!) that that tells you much!

 

All I can see is that in /etc/grub2.cfg :

 

Previous menu entries (eg 4.12.14-200.fc25.x86_64) have an initrd16 line,

But the entry for 4.13.5-100.fc25.x86_64 has not initrd16 line.

Is that significant?

Otherwise I have no idea what is wrong.

 

Its a long time since I had trouble booting, so forgive me if I am a little baffled!

 

I guess I will have to try to capture the actual panic messages.

 

Thanks

Andy
