Thank you for your post. Yet, are you saying that somehow boot-order-lock got enabled without you enabling it? Or are you saying one should toggle that option on and off again?
I tried to cover both those bases on my ThinkPad - by doing the following. I rebooted, entered the BIOS, and checked the boot-order-lock setting. It was off. I set it on and then off again. I saved-and-exited. The I ran fwupd and tried to install the pending updates. All seemed well - but all was well up to this stage before - and I was prompted to reboot. Upon that reboot, it was the same old badness: as before, I saw some Lenovo update stuff flash up, disappear very quickly, and then I was back to the desktop and none of the three pending firmware updates had installed.
I am heartily sick of this problem: it has been going on for at least a year now; no fix is in sight; and it is not even clear whether the problem lies with Lenovo or fwupd or with Ubuntu.
