I updated the BIOS to F.07 and it doesn't change anything. In other words, I've commented out these two options in /etc/default/grub :
# GRUB_GFXMODE=800x600 # GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=text
and after sudo update-grub the boot process shows the same issue as described in the Bug description.
Here is the output of the dmidecode command:
$ sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date [sudo] password for andl: 68MVU Ver. F.07 03/18/2008
