Title:
  [Dell PowerEdge R220] 12.04/14.04 Ubuntu Server 32 bit installer does
  not boot without acpi=off

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Trying to install Ubuntu Server on a brand new Dell R220 (released 2
  months ago).

  Tested multiple installers all from USB:
  - Ubuntu Server 12.04.4 LTS (i686) without any option: kernel panic
  - Ubuntu Server 14.04.4 LTS (i686) without any option: kernel panic
  - Ubuntu Server 12.04.4 LTS (amd64) without any option: works as expected (GOOD)

  The files attached are for a 12.04.4 (latest available as 6/6/14) installation.
  Kernel panic happened into acpi_ex_system_memory_space_handler.

  Tried some options:
  - acpi=ht: kernel panic
  - pci=noacpi: kernel panic

  WORKAROUND: Utilize kernel boot parameter:
  acpi=off
