mei_me timeout failure at boot up












1














I have an mei_me error at system boot up with additional behavior, that the computer'screen is refreshed about every 2 second. After seeing the purple boot screen of Ubuntu I got these error (so I was not able to get the login screen so far):



    ...
[ OK ] Started GNOME Display Manager.
[ OK ] Started Disk Manager
[ OK ] Started Snappy daemon
[ OK ] Started Hold until boot process finishes up.
[ 34.079970] mei_me 0000:00:16.0: timer: init client timeouthbm_state = 2.
[ 94.560062] mei_me 0000:00:16.0: timer: init client timeouthbm_state = 2.
[ 94.561248] mei_me 0000:00:16.0: reset: reached maximal consecutive resets: disabling the device.


I got Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS with kernel version 4.15.0-43-generic.





I already did some searching. With
mei_me unexpected reset and mei_me initialization failed at boot up.





  1. When I try to add blacklist mei_me at the end of /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf file, I was also not able to boot:



    ...
    [ OK ] Started GNOME Display Manager.
    [ OK ] Started Disk Manager
    [ OK ] Started Snappy daemon
    [ OK ] Started Hold until boot process finishes up.



I will be struck at the last line and make no progress. (Hmm the mei_me dosen't appear but it not so helpful for booting.)




  1. When I try control-p to get to Management Engine BIOS Extension Options, it doesn't give me a reply and still lead me to the Ubuntu OS. But I was able to get to the BIOS with pressing F2 and I got an Intel Core i5-4210. Maybe that is a way to fix my problem, when I could get to the Management Engine BIOS Extension Options?

          I found that is a current issue for the 18.04 and the solution that I found is this one: 18.04 Boot freezes at "Started Hold until boot process finishes up".



          I did have no space in the /boot/ partition and I could boot to the OS, after I remote some old kernel image.
          Seems this problem is not relevant to the mei_me but still hope this post could helpful for other having the same problem as me.
