I ran a new installation using an unstable ISO I created on 230729 with linux64.
I created a checklist using
checkupdates > ~/pending-updates.txt
I noted the amd-ucode was newer and matching above
amd-ucode 20230724.59fbffa9-1 -> 20230810.7be2766d-1
I created a snapshot and ran the sync - and my system is back to normal.
