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.
