Research direction
Locate the boot entry definition for “Start in compatibility mode” in the live-session files and inspect the kernel options it supplies. Compare the current noacpi behavior with acpi=off using the Mint 19.3 Xfce 32-bit live USB and dmesg; done means the entry uses the correct option and its ACPI behavior matches the intended compatibility mode.

Description
On my Mint 19.3 Xfce 32-bit live USB stick, the kernel options for the 'Start in compatibility mode' boot entry include "noacpi". Shouldn't that be "acpi=off"? When booted with "noacpi", dmesg output appears to show ACPI being used extensively, but not when I use "acpi=off".
