From testing, it turned out to be a BIOS setting and some things that
isn't supported in 64 bit Linux. Basically, you have to hack your way
into getting something to work. If I could pass the right option to the
kernel on sysrescue then it would likely work. As it is, without that
option, it is failing because the hardware is not supported. Again,
that is based on what I did and what resolved the issue. I plan to test
that sysrescue option soon because something could happen that I need
that to work.

It's a Gigabyte 970A-UD3P and it seems to be a known issue as well.
Note the 970A-UD3 is the same mobo. The P stands for extra copper to
dissipate heat better.
Also for everyone else, I just looked, it appears the BIOS version on
the website is the version currently on the mobo. So, no upgrade
available it seems. It's looking like I either live with a hack job or
swap for something else.
