Subject: Panic in 7.2 and snapshots at boot due to acpi bios error 
 
Hi!  Really love OpenBSD and would like to get it working on my Samsung
Galaxy Book Flex2 Alpha.  NP730QDA-KA3US.  Just offering this up because I
can't send a dmesg.  

I believe it may be a bug in the acpi bios code for which there is no
firmware update.  It boots, linux, win 10/11, net and freebsds fine with
acpi errors.  


We hit this in the Lenovo ThinkStation m70s Gen 3 during hardware validation. A 
workaround was provided and allowed for more data to be sent but the workaround 
was not deemed to be acceptable.

Here is the original bug and thread:

Good to see that it isn't only a Lenovo thing.

Hi!  Really love OpenBSD and would like to get it working on my Samsung

can't send a dmesg.  I get a kernel panic at boot with the following screen,

I believe it may be a bug in the acpi bios code for which there is no
firmware update.  It boots, linux, win 10/11, net and freebsds fine with
acpi errors.  I tried to disable acpi to see if I could get it installed
and the installer ran but could not find the ethernet, wifi or ssd.

Can anyone help with this?  I'd be glad to provide more info if there is a
way.

Thanks,

Jeff
