PureOS failed to load firmware (unhelpful error message)

Hi, I booted up my Librem14 today but PureOS is not loading - it’s loading into Busybox ?

Please help! Thankyou

The “error” is just a warning as PureOS does not contain proprietary blobs: Failed to load DMC firmware (more info requested). Your issue is elsewhere.
