[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1082418] Re: Ubuntu UEFI install locks out UEFI firmware (~bios) access
Christopher, as required, I installed latest build from Ubuntu daily- live/current images and this wiped out my UEFI firmware access. This confirms that the bug exists on the latest kernel too. ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete = Confirmed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1082418 Title: Ubuntu UEFI install locks out UEFI firmware (~bios) access Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 12.10 Release: 12.10 apt-cache policy grub-efi-amd64 grub-efi-amd64: Installed: 2.00-7ubuntu11 Candidate: 2.00-7ubuntu11 Pheonix Secure Core Tiano bios version 1.09 New laptop Fujitsu Lifebook AH532.

Christopher, I can do the test on the latest kernel but not right away. Downloading nearly 1GB of that cdimage would burn out my volume cap and I need it for work.

viking777, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue?

In addition the 'boot choices' menu (f12) contains nothing but Ubuntu making it impossible to boot from USB or CD/DVD. The latter (f12) problem was overcome by opening up the machine, removing the ram and shorting the cl1/cl2 posts with a screwdriver. This restores the ability to boot from USB/CD by pressing f12 but does not restore bios access. The following recovery actions have been tried. 1) Install Boot-Repair, run repair, no change occurred. Boot repair report here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1375041/ 2) Restore Windows from Clonezilla disk image (factory settings) - result - bios access is no longer possible from windows either, f2 now launches the Windows boot menu. 3) Update all drivers using Fujitsu driver update tool from within windows (which included a bios update). Result - no change, no bios. 4) Restored Ubuntu from Clonezilla disk image - no change. 5) Added second distro to disk. Installed successfully (uefi mode as that is all I have) no change to bios access. So overall result I have lost all bios access even from a reinstalled Windows. I repeat that bios access was perfectly normal before installing Ubuntu.
