f26 and rawhide appear to suffer from the same issue, as they both have CONFIG_SERIAL_8250_PCI=m in kernel-x86_64.config. There was a change in 4.11 to let the SERIAL_8250 options be modular but I guess that doesn't work for Fedora. I changed it back to being built in. kernel-4.11.7-300.fc26 has been submitted as an update to Fedora 26. https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2017-44d91780a0 kernel-4.11.7-200.fc25 has been submitted as an update to Fedora 25. https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2017-65f852596f kernel-4.11.7-100.fc24 has been submitted as an update to Fedora 24. https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2017-bbfb70fc1d (In reply to Laura Abbott from comment #2) > There was a change in 4.11 to let the SERIAL_8250 options be modular but I > guess that doesn't work for Fedora. I changed it back to being built in. Thank you. I guess it could work if dracut were able to add the required module to initramfs automatically. I opened a separate bug against dracut for that. kernel-4.11.7-100.fc24 has been pushed to the Fedora 24 testing repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report.

I changed it back to being built in. FYI, this was apparently fixed in dracut shortly after I opened a ticket upstream (https://github.com/dracutdevs/dracut/issues/248), so if you'd like to modularize these again, you can do so after the fix trickles down to Fedora. I haven't verified the fix yet, though. kernel-4.11.7-200.fc25 has been pushed to the Fedora 25 stable repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. I have updated to kernel-4.11.7-200.fc25, but i have still black display on boot instead suggestions to decode image kernel-4.11.8-100.fc24 has been submitted as an update to Fedora 24. https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2017-4880e0f183 kernel-4.11.8-100.fc24 has been pushed to the Fedora 24 testing repository.
