Server with Intel Xeon Gold 6230 fails to boot after upgrading to intel-microcode version 3.20220809.0ubuntu0.22.04.1

Commencez par examiner le bug Launchpad lié et les deux versions de intel-microcode mentionnées dans le rapport. Reproduisez le blocage au démarrage sur la configuration Intel Xeon Gold 6230, en comparant le downgrade et la solution de contournement dis_ucode_ldr ; le travail est considéré comme terminé lorsqu’un correctif confirmé ou une incompatibilité documentée est disponible.

Boot process get stuck at booting SMP configuration. Can be solved by downgrading intel-microcode to version 3.20210608.2ubuntu1 or passing the kernel parameter dis_ucode_ldr
