[Solved] Kernel panic on new install

On a new install, I received the following kernel panic on boot:

systemd[1]: segfault at 16c00 ip 00007f7d32dd83e7 sp 00007ffd8f0dcbc0 error 6 in libc-2.22.so[7f7d32d20000+19b000]

I've tried reformatting and reinstalling multiple times, and the same kernel panic appears.

Also, whenever I try to boot into archiso and chroot, chroot crashes with a Segmentation Fault. (calling pacstrap -i -c /mnt base base-devel fixes this)

Re: [Solved] Kernel panic on new install

Intel? Maybe it's one of those funny CPU bugs. Try setting up microcode updates, updating BIOS, building glibc with no lock elision (search forum for info).

Sorry for refreshing - you have an Intel Skylake CPU? If yes, which motherboard you own?
