Title: Ubuntu 13.10 64bit installer won't boot unless acpi=off on Dell Optiplex 745 Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I am booting live cd of Ubuntu 13.10 Desktop 64bit but it ends with kernel panic because of some issues with acpi. I tried the following: - when I provide parameter acpi=off it boots ok. - when I provide acpi=ht (or no parameter) it generates kernel panic (see the screenshot in attachment). Moreover I can run 32bit version of Mint 15 with no acpi issues which suggests that only 64bit version is affected. There is attachment with two subdirectories: one contains data from Ubuntu 13.10 64 bits livecd taken with acpi=off and the second taken from 32bit version Mint 15. --- ApportVersion: 2.12.5-0ubuntu2 Architecture: amd64 AudioDevicesInUse: USER PID ACCESS COMMAND /dev/snd/controlC0: ubuntu 2843 F.... pulseaudio CasperVersion: 1.336ubuntu1 DistroRelease: Ubuntu 13.10 IwConfig: eth0 no wireless extensions. lo no wireless extensions.
