Installing 4.4.19-041409 does not seem to work on my Dell Dimension E521, which is to say that I am able to download the packages from kernel.ubuntu.com, and install them apparently successfully. However, the system will not boot that kernel.
I am able to boot 4.10.0-42 (from Ubuntu 16.10) but then I cannot login to the desktop. I can, however, log in to a shell. But my BIOS is still frotzed. Disabling downloads of 17.10 is nice, but I was in Ubuntu 16.10 and was prompted to Upgrade, so I did. Why was the upgrade option not disabled? Meh. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1734147 Title: Ubuntu 17.10 corrupting BIOS - many LENOVO laptops models To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/linux/+bug/1734147/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
