Kubuntu LiveUSB kernel panic on boot

Question

I am attempting to install Kubuntu 18.04.1 on my AMD Ryzen 5 based computer, however I get a kernel panic when booting from the USB disk.

The computer's specs: Ryzen 5 - 2600 ASRock B450m Pro4 16GB DDR4-2133 AMD RX-470.

I have observed multiple Kernel panics: corrupted stack end detected inside scheduler Fatal exception in interrupt

As well as hangs on the splash screen (the text "Kubuntu" still "breaths")

Could be a kernel issue. I personally couldn't install an OS with kernel below 4.17 on my Ryzen 2500U.

So from what it sounds like, I need to install the 18.10 version for now and wait for the next LTS release? – Jackson Garland Jan 03 '19 at 22:25
I unfortunately am not sure what kernel the 18.10 install has. – Ólafur Víðir Guðbjargarson Jan 04 '19 at 05:44
