 You said you see the ACPI / no ACPI bootloader menu. It has an option
 (5?) to drop to the boot prompt. Please use that and then try the
 boot -c ... commands I suggested.
 
 This should disable the drm/kms framebuffer for your video card
 (just for debugging purposes) and should allow you to get to a login
 prompt. If that works, we can try to get proper error messages from
 the original failure and see how to fix that.
