Stuck in Bootloop at LineageOS start screen and/or animation

Hi all,

Am trying to upgrade my P905 with LineageOS, and after flashing LineageOS 16 and MindTheGapps 9, it "almost" works but I end up in a bootloop. Basically, the first time after flashing the files and rebooting, it takes about 2 minutes with the LineageOS logo animation, then I get to see the startup screen where I can select the language. If I do nothing at this point, or even click "Accept" and get to the next page, my device reboots. After that, it boots up and only shows about 5 cycles of the logo animation before rebooting again, and this repeats indefinitely. I did manage to capture the logcat files just before the first and second reboots. I'm definitely a noob, so I was hoping someone could help me decipher what the logcat is telling me, and if you know how I should fix the problem?

I am using TWRP3.2.2.0 for flashing the zip files, and I did do a Factory Reset, Format Data, Advanced wipe of System, Dalvik, Cache and Data, and Cleared Cache/Dalvik after installing the zips before rebooting to system. Let me know if anyone needs more info?

Many thanks in advance!

JB.
