Hi, I bought this laptop in December, 2013 and since day 1 I have not been able to boot Linux from this computer using my distro's provided Grub2 due to the issue described here:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/help-grub/2012-02/msg00031.html Lib/relocator.c:1223: min_addr = 0x0, max_addr = 0xffffffffffffffff, target = 0x88800 Lib/relocator.c:433: trying to allocate in 0x0-0xffffffffffffffff aligned 0x1 size 0x7800 Lib/relocator.c:529: Blocking at 0x897e8000-0xb7a04000 The difference with the original poster is that I was able to fix the issue by compiling and signing my own grub. I did this back then so I do not remember exactly what flags I used, but I do know those were the default flags and it works fine (modulo the fact that I have to bootstrap grub manually). Ideally, I would like to return to my distro's Grub2, so I recently upgraded my BIOS but the problem persists. I guess next steps would be finding out what is it that my self-compiled Grub2 has that the distro one does not - I thought it was a matter of modules, but I cannot lsmod in my self-compiled grub's command line. What do you suggest I do now in order to get more info? David E.
