Yes, I could share another image. Its uploading right now.

The memory corruption still shows up though once in 3 boots with the
other 12 patches in so we still have to narrow down, but for now I can
atleast get it to show the systemd boot messages almost always (and
then it hangs ofcourse due to a possible issue with systemd)

If you're going to be running it, I would appreciate it if you could
try to get systemd to show you debug messages using any technique and
share how you did it. So far I have added bootargs, modified systemd
configuration and also tried to start systemd using command line
options from the "init=" bootarg but haven't been able to make it show
anything useful.

Thanks,
Joel
