You have been subscribed to a public bug: The computer is an HP Pavilion 15-n059sf Notebook, core i3, 6GB of Ram, 1TB HDD dual boot with Windows 8.1.
On a fresh install of Linux Mint 18.2 64bits Cinnamon, the computer is taking a **very long time** to boot (3 hours 30 minutes!). See this forum to read details logs: https://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?f=46&p=1381977&sid=a4c49df9a4cbcea6061f63f172617991 The problem is an ACPI error: output of dmesg: [ 16.662017] Adding 6181884k swap on /dev/sda9. Priority:-1 extents:1 across:6181884k FS [12596.103869] ACPI Error: Method parse/execution failed \AMD3._ON, AE_AML_INFINITE_LOOP (20170531/psparse-550) [12596.103893] acpi device:02: Failed to change power state to D0 This problem is here with kernel 4.8 and higher (I even tried 4.14-rc6). The problem is **not here** with kernel 4.4. When editing the boot line, adding acpi=off, the problem is **not here** (tried with 4.13.10). Thought disabling acpi does not seem like a good solution (fans are always turning, battery will be used very quickly). I expect the computer to boot even if there is an ACPI error, not to be stuck in an infinite loop. ** Affects: linuxmint Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Confirmed ** Affects: archlinux Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: debian Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: kernel-bug regression-release -- Infinite loop on boot when loading ACPI https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1728388 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : kernel-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
