I have a Dell Precision 7560, with this issue. I just installed the proposed 5.10.0-1041 oem kernel package for testing.
While it did fix the boot issue, the e1000e driver is failing and I cannot use the wired network interface. Here is the dmesg output of `modprobe e1000e`: [ 293.106059] e1000e: Intel(R) PRO/1000 Network Driver [ 293.106059] e1000e: Copyright(c) 1999 - 2015 Intel Corporation. [ 293.106442] e1000e 0000:00:1f.6: Interrupt Throttling Rate (ints/sec) set to dynamic conservative mode [ 293.194836] e1000e 0000:00:1f.6: The NVM Checksum Is Not Valid [ 293.240151] e1000e: probe of 0000:00:1f.6 failed with error -5 Previously I was working around the e1000e NVM issues by building the e1000e module from the 3.8.7 source package from sourceforge. Applying the patches from https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=213667 to the 5.10.1038-oem kernel source and re-building the e1000e module also solved the issue. ** Bug watch added: Linux Kernel Bug Tracker #213667 https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=213667 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1936998 Title: e1000e blocks the boot process when it tried to write checksum to its NVM To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/hwe-next/+bug/1936998/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
