[Zorin OS 18.1] Only boots with nomodeset and max_cstate=1 (Ryzen 7 5700G / TUF X570-PLUS)

Hello,

It come from the linux-firmware update who get regression for AMD GPU
Remove your grub options and try to downgrade :

sudo apt install linux-firmware=20240318.git3b128b60-0ubuntu2.26

then mark linux-firmware as hold

sudo apt-mark hold linux-firmware
apt-mark showhold #you should see linux-firmware in the list

the regenerate initramfs with the good firmware :

uname -r #your actual kernel should be the output
sudo update-initramfs -u -k 'the result of uname -r'
sudo reboot
