Kernel 4.x could boot with acpi=off with severely decreased
functionality (battery, wifi, screenbacklight) however 5.x kernels,
including the latest 5.4-rc3 freezes at "loading ramdisk" step unless
you pass acpi_osi= (null, nothing after =) to kernel.

There is no visible log/feedback produced so users tend to give up and
move on to other operating systems hence there isn't any tips regarding
this workaround except couple of pages.

I can boot fine with acpi_osi= argument. I tested latest RC (using
Ubuntu 16.10) however it effects every kernel out there, on this
particular machine.

I can provide more details, even a root shell if it can help.

More possible machine details etc. are at

Apologies for typo: It isn't Ubuntu 16.10 which I tested, it is 19.10.
