I'm running Centos 7.7, As the system boots up, these messages show up:

ACPI: [Package] has zero elements (ffff9c9e8b9daac0)

the following is the grabbed from /var/log/messages

Code: Select all

The motherboard is GigaByte H310M H 2.0

I have searched on the web and not much advice is obtained.
1) is it safe to ignore the error message?
2) what is the meaning of the message?
3) How can I avoid the error message?

As far as I know, ACPI tables are built by your BIOS/UEFI code when the machine starts up. I'd start by looking to see if there are BIOS updates available.
