2010-05-05 19:36:37 Mikko Rantalainen description All Twinhead H12Y based laptops (such as Philips Freevents X55) have a BIOS bug where some yet unknown device has memory that should not be touched but the memory is not reserved by the BIOS. The problem manifests itself as hard freeze after loading memory card reader. Other problematic devices on this bios are network adapter and firewire adapter. A workaround that allows installing i386 Ubuntu on this laptop is adding a special kernel parameter: reserve=0xffb00000,0x100000 I'm opening this bug as a feature request to automatically detect this broken bios and apply the required magic by default.
