Summary of my issue is that if I run polkitd/hald my 6.2 system will panic/reset every few hours. I setup a serial console as you suggested but couldn't work out how to get a serial console working in addition to my graphical desktop. Since this is my desktop I had to give up at that point. I've got debug kernel + core dumps which you can have but I don't believe they are very useful, nobody expressed much of an interest in them originally. I don't think my issue is network related although I do have an em NIC it has never given me any problems at all. I've just enabled polkitd without hald, perhaps this will identify that it is explicitly hald which makes my system so unhappy.
