I exhibited similar symptoms when installing Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS on an Asus x541u VivoBook Max system. When performing the installation, the logs would fill up with these errors and eventually fail because of lack of disk space. I found the following thread helpful... http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/linux/kernel/2250177
The workaround for me was to hold left SHIFT, edit the grub menu and add the pcie_aspm=off kernel parameter to suppress the messages during the installation and every subsequent boot. Adding these options to the grub configuration after installing was the long-term workaround. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/671979 Title: Repeated (spurious?) pcieport errors in logs (PCIe Bus Error) Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Expired Bug description: On a newly bought laptop (Asus G53JW), on Ubuntu 10.10 (linux- image-2.6.35-22-generic), logs fill up from messages like this: [ 1108.493365] pcieport 0000:00:03.0: AER: Corrected error received: id=0018 [ 1108.493378] pcieport 0000:00:03.0: PCIe Bus Error: severity=Corrected, type=Physical Layer, id=0018(Receiver ID) [ 1108.493385] pcieport 0000:00:03.0: device [8086:d138] error status/mask=00000001/00001100 [ 1108.493391] pcieport 0000:00:03.0: [ 0] Receiver Error They appear shortly after boot. Everything seems to be nevertheless working. However, the logs get filled up by these messages, and can quickly swell up to GB size. Not sure if this is related: I've also experienced some ~20s hangs when using the proprietary Nvidia drivers in heavy 3D graphics, which may be related. However, these errors appear also without using those drivers (or having the "nvidia" ever been loaded) -- the attached debug info is from a boot without the proprietary drivers. I'll try to follow up with tests with the mainline kernel.
