Description uli 2022-06-06 23:14:09 UTC

When booting (kernel 5.18.1-1-default) I get lots of error reports:

After the login everything works fine

This is likely to be a BIOS bug that kernel just reports this out.
If this is the case, then there is nothing we can do from kernel side.

Please attach the acpidump file and full dmesg output after boot so that we can make a double check.
