Kernel panic - Attempted to kill init exitcode-0x00000101

Good day to All,

Artix Linux, Cinnamon 6.4.10, OpenRC 0.62.4-1, EXT4 on SSD.
Not a fresh installation.

Recently, one of my daily used laptops had a kernel panic:

Please reboot your computer.
Attempted to kill init exitcode-0x00000101


Never ever had such issues. After the latest kernel update, I used the machine everyday without any issues.  It happened once today. Then rebooted the machine and the distro loaded without problems.

The kernel update to 6.15.2-artix1-1:
[2025-06-13T11:28:56+0200] [ALPM] upgraded linux-headers (6.14.10.artix1-1 -> 6.15.2.artix1-1)
[2025-06-13T11:28:42+0200] [ALPM] upgraded linux (6.14.10.artix1-1 -> 6.15.2.artix1-1)

PS: My other computers run Artix Linux without bigger or significant issues. All updates ran/run smoothly.

Any ideas?

Fron the Kernel Panic QR I can see some errors loading the amdgpu firmware, precisely stoney_sdma.bin (error -5).

Probably not being able to initialize the GPU brought the system to a halt (in fact, it says "fatal error during GPU init").

If this is a one-off I wouldn't worry too much, if it persists then you may want to check the amdgpu drivers.
