Comment 593 for bug 1734147

Dear Developper Team,

Would I be relevant if asking you for three advices from my novice standpoint, please ?

First, since you published a list of « affected machines » in the Bug Description, I would like to know if this list is closed or expansible; if other machines could have their BIOS corrupted by launching the Kernel comprised in 17.10.

Secondly, if the list of Affected Machines is expansible, if you could elaborate on the criteria by which to discern if a machine will be affected, please ?

And for my own interest, if the Lenovo X200 should be included in the above list, or if any of the concern expressed in the Bug Description shall be given to the X200?

Thanks for your attention, much kindly.
