Init failed error while installing?

Whenever I want to install Arch Linux, this error appears. I don't know if it's important or even what is the meaning of it, what will affect etc. This appears in the first boot of the ISO. I burned the ISO with rufus in DD Image mode. Then boot it to the install on UEFI. Then after a while about 1 minute, this error pops up.

69.784119] ucsi_acpi USBC000:00: PPM init failed (-110)

I've looked it up from Google but couldn't find many things and some of them were saying something about Graphic cards etc. And they were also using an Asus gaming laptop but a different model. Mine is Asus TUF Gaming F15.

Re: Init failed error while installing?

My googlers suggest it's something related to nouveau's initalization especially in combination with an usb-c bus for an external display. I'd say you shouldn't worry too much about it especially if you intend to use the prop nvidia driver down the line.
