Intel 600p firmware update for linux?

[GMill7]

Hi

Any way to find out if there will be a fix for the issue below with the 600P?

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1402533 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1402533

I waited to May but the recent firmware update didn't include the 600P; stayed at v109C

Starting to think I should be asking for a refund

Hello,

Like the other thread

The last issdfut_2.2.1.iso seems broken to boot and install.

Please someone confirm that. The Package is today unavailable on the Intel dowload center. Is it a new ISO build in construction ?

I wrote the ISO image to a USB flash drive yesterday and managed to upgrade the firmware that way. However installing a Debian Testing ISO image from a few weeks ago still didn't give me a usable install as I got the same hangs as before. I will try with a beta from a few days ago and with the latest CentOS 7 image to see if the issue persists. If I had known that Intel sells SSDs that are not supported on Linux from the very beginning, I would never have bought it. Now I only hope the drive will be usable with Linux one day so it will not have been a complete waste of money. As for future M.2 drives I will probably stick with slightly more expensive but supported Samsung ones.

SAJ2017, how exactly did you manage to burn the ISO image ?. I tried many software and tweaking of them in vain, the USB is recognized as bootable but does not in neither PC of mine.

[edit] the SHA256 of my issdfut_2.2.1.iso is 36cfb6635037f32759333e45ce5d4f714bbe91d7d8b2cda489f2a5a0082568c5

I didn't burn it but wrote it to a USB flash drive using the latest version of Unetbootin. After that I booted it from the boot menu using legacy support instead of EFI.
