Bug Description
I am using VMWare Fusion Tech Preview on an Apple M1 Max MacBook Pro per:
https:/
I am successfully using the 5.14 kernel series (currently 5.14.21-
However whenever I try to upgrade to either the 5.15 or 5.16 series my VM hangs at boot time after:
EFI stub: Booting Linux Kernel...
EFI stub: EFI_RNG_PROTOCOL unavailable
EFI stub: ERROR: FIRMWARE BUG: kernel image not aligned on 64k boundary
EFI stub: ERROR: FIRMWARE BUG: Image BSS overlaps adjacent EFI memory region
EFI stub: Using DIB from configuration table
EFI stub: Exiting boot services...
I see the same "hang" for both 5.15.7 and 5.16-rc4.
FYI this has also been reported by others who note that the problem appears to be specific to Ubuntu:
Given that I can't boot using the 5.15.7 and 5.16-rc4 kernels, I can't provide the output from:
cat /proc/version
However I attach the output from lspci.
Please let me know what other information I can provide to help diagnose this issue.
Thanks
