Your screenshot shows that kernel panics when starting specific process (teamviewerd); you should be able to disable this service.

Oh yes, again a closed source issue. That did the trick. Kernel 4.14.11 boots now with "nopti" option after disabling the service start

No user space program (provided it does not write to /dev/mem or something) shall be able to crash the kernel. It is the PTI patchset suspect here -- there is a lot of issues with that crap arising.

Yup, a sudden increase of posts about freezes, kernel-panic, spontanious reboots in the forums as well. Both for Tumbleweed and Leap. Users can test the nopti nospec noefi boot options by hitting 'e' in GRUB, as a commandline parameter, after 'showopts' . All these options have been reported to work as well as not to work. Some report that even booting a previous kernel doesn't work. Of course booting into a btrfs snapshot does work for those who use btrfs.
