Summary: ThinkPad X1 Carbon G7 and Yoga G4 are not booting when PBLU and PBLUx64 is enabled in Profile
Environment Info:
Version affected: SecureDoc 8.3 SR1
Issue:
SecureDoc PreBoot screen is not displayed and stuck at Black Screen
Root Cause: After BIOS upgrade Phoenix SCT (Secure Core Tiano) components is upgrade from working 4.1.0.355 to 4.1.0.370 that breaks Linux function. Further testing was done by Lenovo with SCT version 4.1.0.385 which works with Linux and PBLU but that BIOS is not available to public yet.
Workaround: During boot up clients can tap letter 'a' to change to PBU preboot. Then once in Windows set the profile to PBU or downgrade BIOS on devices. Lenovo is also working on newer BIOS version as it affects other Linux installs
