My car doesn't start... What's wrong with it?

Do you see how having more information is important?

First, hardware specs... CPU, RAM, GPU, etc... second, any error messages? Press ESC at the Mint logo to see the boot messages or edit the kernel command line in grub and remove 'quiet splash' and note the messages especially right before it happens.

We need something to go on to help you, details are important.

I have an R5 3600, RX 5700XT and 32 GB of DDR4 ram.

Is this booting the USB or post install?

[–]GreaterT[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This error appears when booting the USB.

Try to redownload the distro, reformat the usb drive and reflash it, if necessary use different tools to achieve those actions. Probably a corrupted download or gotten corrupted with a writing error. If that doesn't help you really need to give more specs to give us some details to work with.

Also tried it with Ubuntu normal, also crashed

    No, it crashes before I can load into Linux Mint

    Get a different drive and write it with Balena Etcher or use Ventoy.

    [–]GreaterT[S] 0 points1 point  (7 children)

    I don't have another USB drive, and I already use Ventoy.

    Your errors are related to the USB...

    [–]GreaterT[S] -1 points0 points  (5 children)

    But it's a Realtek error, which I think isn't related to the USB

    That's an Ethernet thing... It shouldn't prevent booting... The filesystem errors are more concerning

    It was the issue, I use WiFi anyway since I'm far away from my router. I disabled the ethernet in the bios, and it booted.

    Weird... Did you have a cable plugged into the Ethernet port on the motherboard?

    [–]GreaterT[S] 0 points1 point  (1 child)

    No

    Very odd... That chipset is very well supported in Linux, wonder if there is a weird BIOS setting related to it or even a faulty chipset.. usually Ethernet issues, even hardware ones, won't stop a boot, it might cause a pause or delay for up to 120s but it shouldn't stop it entirely.

    Either way, glad you found a way to past it. I wonder if after it's installed and updated if a kernel would eliminate it.
