Error on PCIe connection resolved
Error on PCIe connection resolved
I have this problem that occurs on literally every linux distro that I tried to install (Fedora, Ubuntu, Arch, and many others). I am pretty new to the linux world and I am interested in moving away from windows to Linux due to a lot of annoying problems in windows and because I wanna be in control of everything in my pc. I get this problem on my boot screen everytime i boot linux from a usb stick installer or when I actually boot from a hard rive that has linux installed on it. My systems specs are: i7 8700k Asus z370-e sasmung 970 evo ssd 850 evo ssd AMD RX 580 8GB GPU The settings I changed in bios inorder to try to fix this was: Disable fastboot Disablle secure boot and change boot option to other os Disabled ASPM (Was disabled by default) Disabled asus MCE Try 4g decdoing off and on Tryed CSM off and on Non of this fixed the issue I heared from alot of threads that this issue can be fixed by going to grub and turning aspm off or disabling the error reporting in boot. The reason why I dont want to alter my grub menu settings is because I want to actually find out the root of the issue, and how to fix it properly. Does this mean my computer has a problem because windows 10 runs great?? Do I need to wait for a bios update?? Is this normal on the coffelake ?? I know it is alot of question but it would be nice of you to really explain to me how to fix this!!!
In general you'll want to post the exact output of your terminal or a screenshot that is legible. I disagree with the first part our fellow member @Lukyp response. Unless you have a specific reason I would caution against just updating to the latest version of linux. Keep in mind I'm coming from the perspective of stability over cutting edge. My dev rig is running CentOS 7, the kernel is frozen at 3.10 which very old. The second half I agree completely, I've had this issue on CentOS 7, Ubuntu 18.04 desktop and server, and Ubuntu 16.04. If you search for your error message and your distro you'll find specific guidance as to how which kernel parm to use.
Assuming no physical issue on the board (like RFI), the problem likely lies in software or configuration. The best approach is to upgrade to a newer kernel or use a live CD, as these often resolve such issues. You can also disable the error temporarily, but I prefer fixing the hardware since it's clearly signaling a problem.
