Public bug reported:

I already posted this on the Ubuntu Forums and I'm revisiting it now
with more information and accuracy.

Whenever I try to install any flavor of *buntu, I always run into this
problem; a process taking up all of my CPU and after a while, it crashes
the system and the whole screen goes black with text spamming. It shows
some PCI errors non-stop, and following some guides online i tried to
fix it but never actually succeeded.

The distro I was trying to install this time was the default 20.04.2
Ubuntu.

My PC is a laptop, it's an ASUS X541UVK with an i7 7500U and Geforce
920MX. At first I thought that there was a problem with the Nvidia GPU
but it appears to be with the Realtek BT card. I went to follow this
guide:

(since using pci=nomsi once solved the issue some time ago)
And the reproduced steps from the guide above are here (from the live usb):

However this still doesn't solve my problems. I submitted my information
at the time on this bug:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1521173

But now I made a duplicate of the bug since my pc has slightly different
hardware. Also, I have a little bit more free time now. So, this time, I
tried again with Ubuntu 20.04.3 and the results were pretty much the
same; after booting up Ubuntu reported an "internal error" and I just
managed to open the Gnome System Monitor (and sort the processes by CPU
usage) just before the entire pc froze. Here are some pictures:

Then, as suggested in the original bug report (
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1521173/comments/139
), I tried booting using the "pci=noaer" option, and the desktop at
first booted fine, much quicker than before also, but for a few seconds
the screen went black and these appeared on screen:

Then after that it just went back to normal, and I didn't notice any
anomaly. Also here (again, as suggested in the other bug report) I copy-
pasted the results of "lspci -nn" and "dmesg":

I really hope this helps towards finding the issue :) for anything else
for me to try, feel free to suggest and I'll try it and report the
results.
