    Hi, welcome to the forum.

    If anyone should be able to help you, you need to provide as much information as you possibly can:

    Which releases of Ubuntu have you tried?
    Are all updates applied?
    Which hardware?
    When does the error appear?
    What exactly is the problem, besides the message being shown?
    And so on and so on...

    Writing a good question takes time!



    But first of all, please read at least the latest half of the thread. It is very likely that you will find useful information here.

    If you install Buntu 17.10 remember to download a new ISO file.

    Old files might contain a bug which can damage UEFI hardware. Updating an existing installation and upgrading to 17.10 (if one has faith in upgrades in general) are safe.

    Hi,

    I started to get this error during the boot of an industry-PC from a USB-stick, when I was fiddling with the reboot= command-line to the kernel in Ubuntu 10.10.

    It turned out, that the reboot= option actually affected the boot as well for some reason. In my case, the PC reports "00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 945GME Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03)" and "00:02.1 Display controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS/GME, 943/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03)".

    For me, booting without any reboot= option worked, as did reboot=pci, but not reboot=bios.
