Update or Fresh install of 25.07 causes HP ProLiant DL20 Gen9 to Reboot after PFSense Menu

Update or Fresh install of Version 25.07 causes HP ProLiant DL20 Gen9 to reboot after the PFSense Menu, with no logs, just a reboot. The server has no issues and is running the latest available BIOS. All previous versions work perfectly.
Thoughts?

@malindsay without any logs or screenshots, it will take someone with a cristal ball :)
Can you either recoard the boot or connect to a console that the last 10 or 20 lines are visible, before the reboot?
Edit: similar to https://forum.netgate.com/topic/197818/problems-installing-2-8/4 ?

@patient0 I tried to get a photo before the reboot, but it happens too quickly. Then the Black screen and the HP BIOS screen
-
Can you get a video so we have at least some idea of where this is happening?
-
@stephenw10 I will try again soon, had to reload the server with the previous version to get the internet working again

I had same thing last week with Proliant DL360 G10 and Proliant DL360 G9. Update caused a boot loop. At PFSense menu I pressed space bar and after that 6 and choose older bios. After that fw boot was succesfull and I could restore older version. I didn't see the cause either, because boot was right after menu.

I mean kernel, not bios.

@NG Thank you very much. I will try again later this week. When the kernel is running the older version, I assume the unit is running version 24.11 and not 25.07. It seems to be an HP server issue with the new version of PFSense

@malindsay After boot to older kernel the system went up normaly, but the OpenVPN did not work, so I restored 24.11 version from boot environments menu.
