Can't boot Ubuntu 17.10: [Firmware Bug]: ACPI region does not cover the entire command/response buffer

Question

I can't boot Ubuntu 17.10

[    7.872529] tmp_crb MFST0101:00:
[Firmware Bug]: ACPI region does not cover the entire command/response buffer.
[mem 0xfed40000-0xfed4087f flags 0x200] vs fed40080 f80

There are two lines like that.

What should I do?

Solution

Seems to be a BIOS bug.

Try to switch off TPM and ACPI in the BIOS.

Have you only just installed Ubuntu or is this a new problem with an installation you have had for a while? What hardware is this on? Please edit your question to add information

An Asus? Could you edit adding the output of inxi -SM -! 31 && grep acpi /etc/default/grub?

Latest BIOS version, fast boot disabled and I still get the same issue.

I'm suddenly experiencing this on a System76 Meerkat running Pop! 21.04.
