Since you did not say if you are using the StarlingX 3.0 or master ISO,
I wil try to answer for both!
For 3.0, StarlingX uses the CentOS7 3.10 kernel with some additional
patches and configuration changes.
For 4.0 (soon to be released) and master, StarlingX uses the CentOS8
4.18 kernel with a smaller number of patches and configuration changes.
Can you try installing from the master ISO to see if the 4.18 kernel
addresses these panics?
Does this only happen on the machine when installed via PXE? Does it
happen if you install the ISO directly? This could be related to the
initrd setup possibly then.

Just to confirm, you have installed a generic CentOS7 on this hardware
and it works, but not via PXE boot, can you try to install the generic
CentOS7 via PXE boot, this might rule out some of the StarlingX
configuration changes.

In what setup are you seeing these message? StarlingX and Generic
CentOS7 or just StarlingX?
