The boot process is carried out until near the end, the purple plymouth screen goes away and then all I get is flickering screen with lines running across it. I did a few things like "nomodeset" and "pci=nomsi" but nothing does. The later one sends the monitor into power saving mode and the only way out is a hard reboot. I tried to drop to the terminal when the screen starts to flicker and ran #dmesg | grep drm and there are error messages related to my graphics card. Seems like for some reason the GPU is being reset every few seconds. See the screen shot attached for the exact error messages.
