Comment 69 for bug 1795292

Hi Kai-Heng Feng,

So I downloaded all the files, then ran "sudo dpkg -i linux-*.deb" (i think that is how you install the test kernel?)

When I tried to boot without IVRS or quiet splash, it got stuck on "Loading initial ramdisk" and never got past it.

So I tried to go in recovery, still got the IOAPIC[32] not in IVRS table, then eventually kernel panic again because "timer doesnt work through interrupt-remapped io-apic"

If you have more test I can try to boot to see what happens

On a side note, for everyone else:

On ubuntu and mint I had freezing happening every few days, never could last a week without it freezing at least once. However, since booting off kernel 5.2.3, ive not had any freezing yet. So you may want to try that kernel if you have also experienced freezing systems. Note, when I first booted, i got a blank cursor at the login screen. Had to install drivers from amd, and then it worked after a reboot. Still need the "ivrs_ioapic[32]=00:14.0" though. More info here
