kernel panic on 6.17.3-gnu and 6.17.4-gnu from freesh

[Jason Self]

Based on your description, you've already found a successful workaround
by delaying the start of Network Manager. This indicates the system is
stable otherwise.

As you've noted, older kernels work correctly. For now, the most stable
solution is to continue using the last known-working kernel version for
your daily tasks.

The most crucial clues will be in the system logs from the boot attempt
that ended in a panic. After you've rebooted successfully (either with
the workaround or an older kernel), you can view the logs from the
previous boot.
