Christian: looking back and your reply in #478, it would appear that you're on Mint, not Ubuntu. It is likely the case that Mint is still shipping the buggy kernel(s).
We can see in #478: "When installing the Kernels provided above, I can again do changes in BIOS and they stay over reboot. However as soon as I revert back to 4.13.0-21 Kernel, the Problem is back." ...Which is exactly what would be expected. The solution is, after unlocking the flash, do not run a buggy that will relock it. -- 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: corrupted BIOS due to Intel SPI bug in kernel 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
