[Bug 1423526] Re: Bootloader install failure on Acer Aspire E 11 ES1 eMMC based Celeron N2840 laptop

[Mathieu Trudel-Lapierre]

Could there be some problem with the iso image in use? Have you verified
that it's MD5SUM was good?

Also, this may actually be issues with the memory failing; does a recent
vivid image behave the same way?

Title:
  Bootloader install failure on Acer Aspire E 11 ES1 eMMC based Celeron
  N2840 laptop

Status in ubiquity package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  It doesn' t seem possible at all to install Ubuntu on this machine,
  which is too bad because I thoroughly destroyed the Windows install it
  came with :-(

  It may be related to the RPMB partition issues (mmcblk0rpmb r/w
  command timeouts).

  The kernel people will have loads of fun. Since this laptop is
  effectively bricked unless I boot it off a live stick, I am open to
  try new images. I'll give today's Vivid a spin in about 12 hours to
  see how far I can go.

  If it helps, it's the ES1-111M-C40S, Celeron N2840.
