Anytime I load up a version higher than 6.14 it leads to a Kernal panic.

Were there any errors when installing kernel 6.17?
I have seen the update manager consistently show errors, but not sure specifically on kernel 6.17
trim storm
What errors specificly?
spiral bridge
I don't recall the exact errors. Is there a way to check?
trim storm
Alright, open the terminal and show what
df -h
says
trim storm
Ok, you have free space. Now what does
sudo apt update
say?
spiral bridge
trim storm

what is hub-dist-unity3d?
It's probably some version of the unity engine when I downloaded games on steam
trim storm
So.... you didn't add any repositories about unity 3d?
spiral bridge
So.... you didn't add any repositories about unity 3d?
No
Not sure how this shouuld lead to a kernel panic
trim storm
Alright.... what does
inxi -r
say. Maybe it's not directly related to kernel panic, but still should be fixed
trim storm
No, unlikely. You booted from a hard drive or ssd (sda)
What is microsoft-prod repo for?
spiral bridge
I don't have windows installed, but I do have a virtual machine.
I found find any microsoft stuff in my files
trim storm
The address suggests it's for debian 13, but mint is based on ubuntu 24.04 it can be dangerous to mix repos like that.
spiral bridge
I see.
I think I removed it. I'll restart my PC and see if it'll work with the newer version
trim storm
Type this and show the result
sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/microsoft-prod.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/unityhub.list && sudo apt update
trim storm
because mint is based on ubuntu
spiral bridge
because mint is based on ubuntu
Okay.
trim storm
You can run
sudo apt upgrade
for that
trim storm
Now for the kernel panic. What does
sudo dpkg --configure -a
say, if anything?
trim storm
Ok, next is
sudo update-initramfs -u
spiral bridge
trim storm
forgot sudo at the begining, sorry
spiral bridge
trim storm

How do I remove them?
trim storm
Go to update manager - view - linux kernels - remove kernels
spiral bridge

So these two?
