Problem with efibootmgr on asus 1215b
From: Vasco Dias
Date: Sun Jan 01 2012 - 01:21:18 EST
Hi,
the problem is that after booting the system from uefi (with the uefi
shell) and after loading
the module efivars i can't create a new boot entry because the system
just locks completely.
Laptop is using the latest stable kernel and latest bios version
available. The problem occurred with
previous bios version and previous with kernels too.
After the system locking it becomes completely unresponsive and the
only way too shutdown is to cut the power,
including removing the battery.
I'm reporting here on the list after asking about it on the arch linux
forums ( https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1024451 ).
I'm a noob with mailing lists and all these kernel problems, so please
be kind :P.
Thanks in advance.
