That appears to be a kernel panic.
In the grub menu, edit the boot commands (type 'e'
key twice), and append kernel options " -kv" at the
end of the "kernel" boot line. Boot using the modified
entry.
Now the kernel should stop in the kernel debugger
instead of an immediate reboot. In the kernel
debugger you should be able to read the panic
messages. You can also use these commands to
print the kernel messages and the kernel panic
stack backtrace:
::msgbuf
::stack
What panic do you get?
What stack backtrace is reported?
