i have tried builds for F2A85M since version 4.8 dating back to mid 2018,

AMD-A8 5500 works properly with IOMMU enabled, still some stabilty
problems (full system freezes).

AMD A8-6600K shows the described behavior 

I also tried that manual microcode update in the past, didnt change
anything there, i could retry it for the current build.

Serial output gives no information about malfunctioning IOMMU or
something, the strugle begins as without IOMMU the system is notable to
initialize add-on videocards or the iGPU.
