Manjaro, Kubuntu 20.10 and Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS all crash on me if I won't set maxcpus=1 in GRUB. Replacing quiet splash
with nomodeset
or changing UEFI BIOS settings to disable all Intel CPU features changes nothing.
Windows 10 runs without issues and is perfectly stable.
Available crash logs:

I'd like to know if it would be possible to use more than 1/8 vCPU (4 physical cores x 2 virtual cores each).
