Cannot boot the latest Arch Linux

I tried to install the latest Arch Linux (archlinux-2024.11.01-x86_64) in my PC but was stuck at the first step. The screenshot is as it:

The important code is here:

 ACPI BIOS Error (bug): Could not resolve symbol [\SB.UBTC.RUCC], AE_NOT_FOUND (20240322/psargs-332)

It seems it is a BIOS compatibility problem. The motherboard vendor didn't design the ACPI in the correct way and Arch Linux is so strict with that. Is there anyone having clues with that.

More Info:

Motherboard:

Manufacturer  Product                           SerialNumber  Version

Those ACPI errors are somewhat common and typically not fatal.
Add

ignore_loglevel nomodeset

to the kernel commandline parameters (on grub, press "e" to edit the entry and edit the line that has "root=…" in it

Re: Cannot boot the latest Arch Linux

Thanks, I fixed it by attaching

acpi=off

to the kernel cmdline parameters and also modified the grub configuration file after installing successfully.

Re: Cannot boot the latest Arch Linux

You probably don't  want to run the system this way - several things won't work w/o the ACPI.
1. is this actually necessary with the installed (and updated) system?
2. does it also affect the LTS kernel?
3. if you boot "ignore_loglevel nomodeset" does that leave a hint at which point it actually fails?
