I am looking for help to resolve a persistent "not syncing" panic stop while trying to install Rocky Linux 9.1 from a USB drive.

Context

The machine is currently running 9.1 without any issues but I'm now planning a fresh re-install of 9.1 in order to put it into service as a KVM/QEMU host.

Hardware

  • M/B: ASUS Prime X570-P
  • CPU: Ryzen 5 5600X 4th Gen 6-core
  • RAM: Crucial Ballistix 3600 MHz DDR4 DRAM (2x16GB)
  • SSD: SAMSUNG 980 PRO 1TB PCIe NVMe Gen4
  • VGA: ATI AMD FirePro 2270 512MB PCI-E

Things I have tried

  • Using different USB drives.
  • Removing the two 16GB RAM sticks and using only one at a time.
  • Removing all cards except for the video card used for the console.

I have no experience with debugging kernel panic stops and have had no luck searching this forum nor googling the net for solutions.

UEFI BIOS Settings

  • "Factory" settings
  • Secure boot disabled
  • Never overclocked; RAM running at 2666MHz

The Panic

I suspect a video driver issue even though the video vard works fine for the console when I boot the existing Rocky 9.1 installation. A photo of the panic screen follows: enter image description here

It turns out that the issue occurs only with the Rocky Linux 9,1 release. Rocky Rocky Linux 9.0 installs fine from a USB.
