[Bug 1180649] Re: sbsigntool prints scary warning about invalid PE-COFF files which should be debug infos (file-aligned section .text extends beyond end of file; checksum areas are greater than image size. Invalid section table?)

[Edoardo Barolo]

Is it possible that this bug can affect motherboard efi boot/bios ?
Because when I use windows in my ASUS H97 plus all works fine. 

But when I switch to ubuntu, often after an upgrade (signed image) the
computer locks itself not booting at all during BIOS UEFI BOOT !!Than I
have to remove bios battery and reset bios using jumper (and also
pressing boot button for 10 seconds) than after that I regain PC
control.

The very first time I had to remove all peripherals from motherboard...
This happens only with ubuntu and only after an upgrade... If use ubuntu
or Windows normally (no upgrading) I can go on for months without any
problems.. BUT if I upgrade ubuntu this not always, but often
happens....
