2018-01-30 13:07:05 Stephane description The version "3.20180108.0+really20170707ubuntu17.10.1" of the package "intel-microcode" randomly freezes Ubuntu at boot (at a very early stage, nothing is written on the screen). The number of hard reset of the computer required looks random but it works at third boot most of the time. I was previously affected by the 20180808 regression : https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/intel-microcode/+bug/1742933 Symptoms are the same. user@PC:~$ dmesg | grep microcode [ 0.000000] microcode: microcode updated early to revision 0xba, date = 2017-04-09 [ 0.986254] microcode: sig=0x506e3, pf=0x20, revision=0xba [ 0.986730] microcode: Microcode Update Driver: v2.2. If I uninstall "intel-microcode" everything is fine. user@PC:~$ lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 17.10 Release: 17.10 This install is relatively fresh as I did it when I was affected by the 20180808 regression.
