Hi, yes I can try. The last good one is 4.4.154 and the first bad kernel is 4.13.0 (4.15 and 4.18 are confirmed problematic), I see the range between kernels is wide. How would I proceed to test?

With kernel 4.4.0 the system boots without problem (xubuntu 16.04), after upgrading to kernel 4.15 the system doesn't boot anymore (18.04). This issue was present when testing kernel 4.13 too. The install crashes with an error: BIOS bug:8254 timer not connected to io-apic error on. Adding any of these commands to the boot allows the system to load properly: -acpi=off -pci=noacpi -acpi=noirq I attach the info related.
