Does it complete the bootup process and you can log in as normal...? A startup glitch only ?
No SMC or NVRAM on the M1 SoC.
The best you can do if you have an issue— equivalent Shut down, close the lid 30 secs+ , reboot as normal.
If no resolve try SafeBoot How to use safe mode on your Mac - Apple Support to sort anomalies.
Takes noticeable longer to get to the login screen, does a 5 minute disk repair before it fully boots up, and certain system caches get cleared and rebuilt, including dynamic loader cache, etc.
Login and test. Reboot as normal and test. Caches get rebuilt automatically.
