"Easy" = buy a different laptop! :) Afraid I'm out of other ideas. Next might be to try to apply a similar code fix/workaround in events_base.c, recompile, etc., but that's getting pretty in-depth for something I could be completely wrong about.

Awokd, One of the machines is a B117-M and the other is a B116-M. The previous boot debug is from the B116-M. 1) BIOS was updated to the latest available 1.23 and 1.24 on the B116-M and B117-M respectively - still getting the KERNEL PANIC on both machines. 2) Tried disabling all non essential peripherals in the bios (Audio, Wifi, LAN, Webcam, SDcard reader - leaving only the USB ports enabled), but without any success before and after the BIOS Upgrade. Still getting the KERNEL PANIC. If I had to guess I would point at the intel chipset as the common denominator? Is there a way to tweak the kernel to work around this? A failsafe option? I would really love to give Qubes a try! Thanks for any further insight or pointers. At 23:22 28/08/2019, 'awokd' via qubes-users wrote: >Update BIOS first.
