I have been reading up on AskUbuntu and this LINUX.org/Ubuntu forum about the sudden occurrence of APCI errrors resulting in a situation where systems might or no longer boot, the latter being my situation.
What i learned is that itś considered "a problem that usually occurs when new hardware is involved¨. That assumption might be true to a certain extend. it is NOT true in my case.
I have a desktop with an ASUS mothreboard van AMD10 processor from 2014. I started with Ubuntu 14.04 LTS and moved on to 16.04 LTS then 18.04LTS ( which caused a lot of problems so i reinstalled with 20.04 LTS) in June 2022 I reinstalled my PC with 22.04 LTS. I never had any ACPI error during the Boot process
Since october 2022 my PC has been playing up with ACPI errors duyring the Ubuntu boot process and it died around christmas. worse imho it has killed a 2 TB HDD (3.5") but my system disk an SSD is still working.
Before my holidays in september my PC started i mean i couldn´t get a cupper while booting, from october onward i could take a shower while waiting for my PC to boot.
I have Ubuntu 22.04 on a stick and it doesn´t matter if I boot from the stick or the SSD it takes time, bloody much time.
So I can categorically deny that the ACPI erreor problem is linked to new hardware, imho itś linked to the way ubuntu 22.04 is looking at ACPI and i expect an update after june 2022 is the cause of the problem.
my next step is to go back to Ubuntu 20.04 LTS
One of the solutions is to change the Grub config file and add noacpi, acpi strict or whatrever.
please describe how I can get to that /etc/default/grub file, how I can edit it and how to save it , the how to pass it through the grub2 executable from a system that doesnot boot not even from a bootbale USB stick
Please let me know what info you want about my setup to help you resolve
