I can confirm that the advice given by morlock has returned my bios to working order, though I don't think this marks the bug as solved as it is just a workround and will probably recur if Ubuntu is reinstalled.
The bios contains no settings related to Uefi that I can find (ie I can't switch it off). And YannUbuntu, who kindly read my latest Boot- Repair pastebin report, tells me that Secure Boot is not enabled. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1082418 Title: Ubuntu Uefi install locks out bios access To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubiquity/+bug/1082418/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
