Urgh.............
Thanks for the report. Could you provide some more details?
- Is your machine definitely bricked? - Exactly which Dell machine is this? - What were you doing to cause your machine to not boot? Using efibootmgr? - Please send your .config - Have you reported this to any BIOS engineers to confirm the cause of the bricking? - Have you got a dmesg from the machine before it broke?
