From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Top one has to be my favorite. I've gotten it once. I did manage to get it to boot and fixed it but at the time I was just like: "oh....well shit"
do you remember what causes it? and what was the fix?
I had this happen to me recently too, with an EndeavourOS live USB. In my case, it turned out to be due to a faulty flash, reflashing with Rufus fixed it.
