Bug Description
After a recent upgrade of the kernel package (from 5.0.0-23 to 5.0.0-25), my system now panics on boot. I'll try to attach a screenshot.
To workaround this I currently need to select the previous version (5.0.0-23) to boot into this system.
The system is an HP Proliant Gen8 microserver. Intel Celeron G1610T CPU. The only thing "unusual" about the bootup is that the OS is installed on a Micro SD card slotted into the motherboard, which to the OS appears as a USB disk.

I’ve now got a fix that allows me to boot 5.0.0-25 correctly. I had to add “rootwait” as a kernel command line option.
I’m not sure why 5.0.0-25 suddenly needs this option when the numerous previous kernels haven’t. Just luck?
