Having same issue after installing Ubuntu 17.10 on Acer ES1-512. Can't change any settings in BIOS. Moreover, system don't recognize any DVD or USB. However, i still can add trusted .efi files, so i installed Windows 10 directly form HDD and doing fine.
Personally, i don't find this problem very critical because i can easily work on windows for 2-3 years. However, i hope that problem will be solved soon so i can get rid of windows and use linux again) -- 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/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1734147/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
