The AMD Radeon Pro 5600M with 8GB of HBM2 memory GPU is found in MacBook Pro 16 inch, 2019 (MacBookPro16,4).

The GPU fails to work on Linux, thus a blank black screen gets displayed on boot.

If nomodeset is added as a kernel parameter, we are able to access Linux easily.

The link below contains the journalctl of the failed boot :-
