Issue with Cinnamon iso's?

After reading Manjaro version 25+ has btrfs by default I decided to install the latest Cinnamon version on VirtualBox to check out the configuration.

I’m a minimalist by heart so I went with “manjaro-cinnamon-25.0.0-minimal-250417-linux614”. The iso boots up fine into the live desktop but installing (always) fails using the default option of “erase disk and install”.
As a test I also tried out the full version of the Cinnamon iso, but it gives me the same errors. I also tried installing on bare-metal, but again same error.

Installing Gnome edition does work without issues.

Please see attached logs for additional info.

Same issue as with the SwayWM Edition here: Manjaro sway install error: crc32c_intel not supported anymore

Since linux v6.13-rc1 crc32c_intel is removed e.g. is “glued together” with crc32c which is built-in and therefore always loaded.

Community editions like Cinnamon, SwayWM or I3 uses v6.14, while the official versions like Gnome, Plasma and XFCE used v6.12.

The reason for this additional entry was BTRFS in the past. With Linux v6.14 that is not needed:
