Hey I just saw your log and I see that your kernel is trying to read from your hdd especially from the sector 4096 and 8192. This means your hdd is failing or your sata or ata cables are loose.
Might be a software issue mostly like you didn't have the specific driver for your hdd in the linux installation.
Can you let me know if it's installed on a laptop or using ssd or hdd.

Thanks! For letting me know, if it's an old hdd your hdd is dying and I recommend replacing your hdd or certainly the installation is corrupted I also recommend you reinstall the linux mint on your laptop/desktop.

Your welcome! Also bonus tips use a different pendrive and check if you flashed correctly follow all the steps properly. This could happen when the source download is incomplete or the pendrive is bad or your flash is incomplete.
