This does not at all describe the issue at hand. An upgrade would not cause an Ubuntu system to start using UEFI where it didn't before, and the problem here is already present when booting 12.04 in UEFI mode on an affected Samsung system. While it's possible a bug left you with a non-booting system on upgrade, it's unlikely that the upgrade bricked your laptop - to "brick" the laptop means that the hardware can no longer boot *any* OS, not just that your current install is non-bootable. Either way, this is unrelated to the present bug report and you should file a separate bug. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1040557 Title: UEFI boot live-usb bricks SAMSUNG 530U3C,np700z5c laptop To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-cdimage/+bug/1040557/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
