    Problem with booting Ubuntu, SGX disabled by BIOS

    Hello
    Lately i was installing some drivers in Ubuntu and after rebooting this problem show up:

    Only this information pops up and system blocks here.

    I was trying to enable SGX in BIOS but could not find the option, becouse my motherboard does not support changing SGX, as i understood.
    I have motherboard from ASUS, and i dont like that there are few options in this UEFI settings :(

    I have installed Ubuntu and Windows 11 on my laptop.

    SGX disabled by BIOS - It's only a message, nothing to worry about
    /dev/nvme0n1p5 : clean - This is good news

    Does Ubuntu boot successfully?

    No, after selecting Ubuntu in boot manager, only this show up and it stops here. Well, i waited like 10 minutes with this message displayed and nothing changed.

    Windows works fine.

    We used to get boot up messages about TPM (Trusted Platform Module) claiming there was a firmware bug. But that has been taken care of in more recent versions of Ubuntu. Or, perhaps its in the Linux kernel.

    My laptop has Software Guard Extensions (SGX) enabled. I do not experience any problems with Ubuntu. The motherboard functions are there for those who wish to make use of them. And there should be a provision to adjust or disable the settings for those who wish to do that.

    I was installing drivers to my network card, becouse i thought that this is the problem why i couldn’t connect to the WiFi which require login and password, wich is other issue.
    I looked in internet and downloaded some drivers via terminal.
    Typed this command:

    sudo apt-get install bcmwl-kernel-source

    and after installation a got this message:

    So i rebooted the system, and couldn't come back.

    link of the website i got the install command from:

    Can you access your UEFI settings?
    Disable Secure Boot
    Disable TPM and other similar security options (e.g. ftpm, ptt etc.)

    Re: Problem with booting Ubuntu, SGX disabled by BIOS

    The new message indicates possible file system damage.
    I suggest that you boot into a "Try Ubuntu" live session to run a filesystem check.
    Open a terminal and enter:-
    Code:
    sudo fsck /dev/nvme0n1p5
    Also, if your ESP is partition 1
    Code:
    sudo fsck /dev/nvme0n1p1
    After fixing errors (if any), close the terminal and power off the live session.
    Any luck with booting the installed Ubuntu system?
