[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1812758] Re: Boot failure on Dell Precision 5820 with Intel Xeon W-2123 CPU

I had a similar issue with an existing Ubuntu 16.04 LTS install on my Dell Precision 5820 tower that has booted without issue for 2 years. After updating the BIOS via the Ubuntu Software Center (to 1.13.0), my computer gave only a black screen. After clearing the BIOS, CMOS and NVRAM by removing t

What status should this bug be moved to? Obviously there is something fishy going on with Intel VMD being enabled, but I'm not using it so it doesn't impact me in this case. Should I get any logs to assist in figuring out why enabling VMD causes the system not boot properly? -- You received this

I was able to install 18.04 without issue. It looks like the solution to disable "Intel VMD Technology" in the BIOS solved the issue. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1812758

I had some luck with Dell after I told them to give me a different machine. Finally got in touch with someone with Dell support that checked their knowledge base. There is an option in the Dell BIOS that has to do with "Intel VMD Technology". The solution that Dell provided was to disable the VMD

@Kai-Heng Feng (kaihengfeng) It does not have an integrated GPU. I've tried several other GPUs. I've done the installation with nomodeset kernel parameters and noapci and a few others. Got it to install, installed the GPU drivers, however it still wouldn't boot properly/consistently without param
