Hello, God bless the Proxmox team for the excellent work!
On Intel server board S5000PSL with 2 CPU and 16Gb RAM hang and don't boot on error:
ACPI Error: Aborting method \_SB._OSC due to previous error (AE_AML_BUFFER_LIMIT)

I've already tried with setup acpi=off in grub but don't boot anyway, "kernel panic - not syncing" instead.
Any help will be appreciated, I don't want to drop this server, still has power to do great things!
thanks you in advance!

p.d: With Proxmox 6.x works fine, with proxmox 7.x stop at boot (see photo)

Since those mainboards were released 16 years ago and it could even handle Netburst CPUs (and Core/Core2 ones), I'd assume your hardware is simply too old at this point for newer kernel versions.
If you can boot it using an older kernel (5.4 or similar), you could try installing the latest kernel 5.13 and the latest kernel 5.19 and check those to see how it behaves.

Hello, sorry for my delay and HAPPY NEW YEAR for everyone!!!!
Until now, I couldn't find another solution (I haven't had time anyway).
I ended up installing the version: proxmox-ve: 7.0-2 (running kernel: 5.11.22-4-pve)
I'm limited to using new containers and so on, but my old server is still up and running!
Sincerely, thank you very much!
Best regards,
Carlos
