Fix Kernel Panic error on the Victus by HP Gaming Laptop

[tpkusr]

To boot an ISO (it doesn't matter which one because the same thing happens: Ubuntu, Fedora, Linux Mint, Pop OS, etc.). I use Impression (for a single one) or Ventoy (in fact," it doesn't matter which programme I use).

So you are trying multiple Linux iso using ventoy without any success. The reason behind the failure is ventoy installation method and those iso not supporting the method.
You can try "porteus Linux iso" and "slax Linux iso". I think this two will work. Give it a try ( both are small in size). If these two works than you have to follow traditional way to try or install ( Ubuntu, mint etc) not the ventoy way.

In summary, both ISOs did not work despite being verified. The laptop did not detect the USB flash drive with Slax and Porteus (and no, they are not corrupted).

So sad in my case while I try to boot various Linux iso from hdd using grub2win all popular Linux (Ubuntu, mint , debian etc live iso) didn't wanted to boot stuck in network config loop but porteus and slax were able to boot.
So my suggestion will be try one Linux like Ubuntu by default way ( how they instruct to install) .

An important update:
As strange as it may sound, it's curious.
In one of my attempts to install a distro and give up in the process, I was using Ubuntu again, and as you know, it kept freezing/going black/Kernel Panic. One of the times I did manage to start the iso, I activated "performance" mode and, curiously, everything was normal, nothing to complain about, and I installed it without any problems. When starting Ubuntu normally, I quickly activated "performance" mode again, and it has rarely frozen since. One thing I do have to report is that when I restarted/shut down and turned it on, it went black, and when I turned it on again, it did one of two things (Kernel Panic/froze), but on the third attempt, everything was normal. Hahaha. This is very strange, or do you know of any similar cases?

That is very good news, to get a distro up, in this case ubuntu.

That symptom you describe of an intermittent problem where at one time it runs "normal" and at another time panics, suggests a hardware issue, since the software is not changing itself. Intermittent functioning can be quite challenging to diagnose. It would be wise in this case to fully test the RAM with the memtest86+ software, and also check the nvme drive with the commands shown as examples in the manpages: nvme-smart-log, and, nvme-id-ctrl. In the nvme drive output, things to look for are:
temperatures not too hot (e.g. around 40C is good), media errors, percentage of disk available and used, data units read and written. It would be useful for readers to see the actual outputs if they appear problematical or indecipherable.

Update:
It has been weeks since we managed to start the distro on the laptop, but now we are experiencing another problem. Once the laptop is turned on again, an error message appears on the screen that reads something like "Kernel Panic: Kernel Is Corrupted". Another message also appears on the screen, which is as follows. Is there a solution for this type of error?

As Kernel Panic is usually related to Hardware...the first thing I'd do is swap the internal Drive, as I suggested in post 9.
