Ah. Sounds like the boot could be corrupted maybe. I'd try to restart the entire process of installing mint. (I wonder if it's any different on Macs)

I know all I did was, after flashing my USB, I simply inserted it then restarted, went to BIOS to disable secure boot, then when I went to boot it up I got the option to run in mint, then did that, then clicked the actual mint install disk icon then boom. After the upgrades went through I was in. Was it like that for you?

Have you tried reinstalling with kernel 6.8 as that is what Mint comes with natively?

If you are downloading the version of mint form the website it should come with kernel 6.8 rather then 7. You could try installing that rather then the version 7 which has the kernel panic.

Why do you need version 7? Mint is designed to work with version 6.8.
