Dear all,

 

Booting with linux kernel 2.6.34, with X86_RESERVE_LOW_64K and X86_CHECK_BIOS_CORRUPTION enabled, on my HP Envy 17 1010el with BIOS F13A, I'm getting "Memory corruption in low memory" from dmesg output at 60s:

 

WARNING: at arch/x86/kernel/check.c:134 check_for_bios_corruption+0xc0/0xd6()

Could someone verify it and maybe provide an official fix.

Thank you very much.
