any idea what this is? Ive been seeing this a lot when I start up my laptop - sometimes it goes away automatically, sometimes it doesnt, but I have no idea what to even search for.
search for “linux fix bad bit”, from my experience with raspberry pis i think this happens if you don’t power off the device properly. if this happens more often, it’s usually a sign that the hdd is damaged and will give in soon
That’s not a kernel panic

That’s just systemd failing to start Switch Root. Have you tried the systemctl status suggestion in the error, or reading the text file it generates?
