Errors during install - ACPI Errors and Memory Pressure errors
bughardware-compat
Hello, I am trying to install Bazzite on my laptop so that I can dual boot Windows 11 off the same SSD. I get ACPI errors right out of the gate, although the install acts like it is able to proceed. After the install runs through what appear to be system checks, I get another set of errors stating issues with the Memory Pressure Threshold and then a black screen with a cursor, followed by my laptop seeming to go to sleep.
Some cursory Google searches make it seem like it's related to my laptop model (Razer Blade 14 [2025] with RTX 5070 and 32GB of RAM) or issues with my partition names. I would like to get Bazzite installed on this laptop as I am tired of Microsoft trying to force AI on me, but the last time I messed around with Linux was over a decade ago so I'm definitely out of practice.
Here are the initial errors:
ACPI Error: No handler for Region [VRTC] ((ptrval)) [SystemCMOS] (202504
ACPI Error: Region SystemCMOS (ID=5) has no handler (20250404/exfldio-261)
ACPI Error: Aborting method _SB.PCIO.SBRG.ECO.RTEC due to previous error (AE_NO sparse-529)
ACPI Error: Aborting method _SB.PCIO.SBRG.ECO._REG due to previous error (AE_NO sparse-529)
It seems weird that I'm getting a ptrval variable instead of an actual pointer number, but I don't know if that's normal.
Here are the Memory Pressure errors:
Failed to adjust memory pressure threshold, ignoring: Device or resource busy
Queued start job for default target default.target.
Failed to adjust memory pressure threshold, ignoring: Device or resource busy
Startup finished in 127ms.
After the "Startup finished in 127ms." message, I get the black screen with a cursor on it, then it seems like the laptop goes to sleep.
I've attached some screenshots.
