Just had the problem again after upgrading 20.10 to 21.04. Kernel 5.8.0-55 boots OK. Kernel 5.11.0-18 fails with the memory error. I'm just about to re-add the GFXMODE line to grub, which I hope will (again) work around the problem. -- You received this bug notification because you are a membe

Issue appears to be related to display resolution. Grub was booting into 3840x2160 mode, with the resulting tiny, near-unreadable font. So I set GFXMODE=800x600 and now - unexpectedly - kernel 5.2.0 is able to boot without the memory errors. Not sure why the high resolution causes an out-of-memory
