Upgraded Freebsd 13.2 to 13.3

I just upgraded from 13.2 to 13.3

I did the
freebsd-update fetch install
pkg update && pkg upgrade
freebsd-update upgrade -r 13.3 -RELEASE
freebsd-update install

after it installed it instructed me to reboot and to the last command again.

I do this but this time when it boots into a gnome desktop before it gets there
there's a kernel panic.

Here's an identical issue: https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/radeonkms-causing-kernel-panic-after-13-2-13-3-upgrade.93259/

It's the same kind of kernel panic message I see where it shows those 17 items.

I couldn't boot in multi-user mode. I then decided to boot into single mode.

I then edited rc.conf to not automatically start GDM and commented out a KLD setting to load in drm-kmod

after doing this. I was able to boot into multi-mode and use terminal command line.

I think ran the command
freebsd-update install
it ran successfully and completed

I did another
pkg update && pkg upgrade
pkg deinstall clean drm-kmod
pkg install clean drm-kmod
pkg update && pkg upgrade
This time it shown that there's a new version of drm-kmod
it asked do you want to upgrade it to the latest version I put yes
then it finished installing successfully
Then edited rc.conf to kld that drm-kmod and rebooted the system.

now, it still shows the kernel panic just like in the link I provided above nothing changed.

I don't know what to do..

should I continue and upgrade to freebsd 13.4 ? I am trying to get to 14.1 the latest version.
However, I was told I need to upgrade to each version one step at a time.

I just want to know if this is the right way to do it?

why is the kernel having that panic issue?

My guess is that the latest version of drm-kmod is supported in 14.1

and I would assume if this is true then I just need to use the terminal
and just upgrade the OS to version 13.4 then to 14.0 and then 14.1
by 14.1 the drm-kmod should work properly?

any ideas on how I should proceed ?
 
pkg deinstall clean drm-kmod
This looks like a mix of a make(1) command and pkg(8) (pkg-delete(8) deletes a package).

My guess is that the latest version of drm-kmod is supported in 14.1
Yes, that is graphics/drm-61-kmod, that is not available for 13.3-RELEASE or 13.4-RELEASE. That doesn't mean that graphics/drm-510-kmod or graphics/drm-515-kmod couldn't work on your system.

Could you post some info about your system?
freebsd-version -kru
pciconf -lv | grep -B4 -A1 display
sysctl hw.model hw.machine hw.ncpu
