There are no general crashes or issues in the Ubuntu image which lead to Kernel crashes which i am aware of. The most likely reason is the PSU for both of you. If you have problem use a very short (like 15cm) USB cable.
Btw, from the boot log above i see that this is a 2GB Pine64. As i do not have one of those, i am willing to consider the possibility that there is an issue. So @Luke you are on 2GB model as well?
Thank you for your response longsleep. Yes, correct, I am using a 2GB board. Regarding the PSU hypothesis - I have now tried 5 different PSUs and a 10cm good quality cable as you have suggested and still no luck booting into ubuntu.
Just in case it helps you in some way Longsleep... I also have the 2GB Pine64+ and getting the same problem. Seems to occur with loading/unloading the Ethernet module (note it has the 1Gbit NIC and not the 100Mbit of the non-plus) - can also cause the same panic by ifdown eth0 when booted up without nw cable present. It also takes 5 seconds from plugging in cable to cause a panic.
in regard to PSUs - used brand new RPI3 designed micro USB and iPad wall plug. All functions including networking of the A64 work fine in archlinux (albeit only showing up just shy of 1GB of RAM)... great to see your Ubuntu build is showing all 2GB thanks
