I can confirm My Macbook 6,1 has also suffered from this bug.. I have to
power cycle it 5 times before it will boot. But on a plus side.. it does
boot.
I do have an issue in that Apple do not have any updates for the efi on
my model on its web site. So my choices are, live with it or replace the
logic board at cost...
I have emailed my local Apple service centre requesting a copy of the
firmware of at least a chance to pay them to re-flash my Macbook. But I
am not hopeful. I dont think Apple will be too interested in fixing the
result of a bug in Open Source.
I am very disappointed. And whats the most disappointing is the release
notes had not been updated with the details of this issue before I
attempted (a week back) to install Natty. If it had been I would not be
in this situation.
PS: I just checked the release notes and there is still no warning about
this issue.
