G15 5515 Ryzen, issues with Linux Installation
<Moved out of Alienware and into Linux General. DELL-Admin>
So i have been trying to dual boot Linux with Windows 11 24H2 but no luck.
I am running on the Latest Bios Version (1.27.0) , With Secure Boot Disabled.
Every Linux distro that i have tried to run up until now has given me almost about the same ACPI BIOS ERROR, on boot. (images attached)
i have tried Mint, Ubuntu LTS and Kali. Flashed onto different Pendrives Multiple times Through Rufus, BalenaEtcher and Ventoy. Nothing Helped.
my friend sent me this https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/786393/ucsi-acpi-error-con1-failed-to-get-usb-role-switch-ppm-init-failed , which indicates this as a bios firmware issue.
Laptop Spec- Dell G15 5515 Ryzen 5 5600H, RTX 3050
So is there any workarounds regarding this certain issue that someone has found?
UBUNTU LTS:
LINUX MINT:
KALI LIVE:

If there is a workaround, it will need to come from the Linux community -- Dell has no Linux support on this model.

Hi
Is FAST STARTUP disabled and FAST BOOT also.
Set to uEFI boot mode.
Possible solutions.........
Add kernel parameter at boot, press e at Grub menu (if you get that far).
then try
acpi=off
or
noacpi
or
acpi=strict
