I have problems trying to use Linux distributions on my new machine, a HP Pavilion TG01-2856no. The CPU it has was released Q1 2021.
My problem is that whenever I boot a Linux distribution ISO, it appears that my CPU stalls on tasks. The most recent kernel version this has happened on is 5.13.13, with Arch Linux.
I could get journalctl logs from NixOS: https://ibb.co/album/9wMM0p
The fact that I have the same problem on multiple distributions has led me to believe that it's something to do with the kernel, but I could be wrong.
I have set Secure Boot off in my BIOS settings and the SATA emulation is set to AHCI. I have tried with RAID.
I have tried the following boot options: nomodeset, noacpi, noapic, acpi=off.
The only distributions that I have managed to get working are Devuan and Gentoo.

Devuan and Gentoo both do not use systemd,
about any other distro does so by default.
So I would suspect an issue with systemd.
