Title:
  Lenovo Ideapad 3-14ITL6 broken (bios nor Ubuntu installer seeing HDD)
  after trying to install a firmware update

Status in fwupd package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Hello,
  I've recently purchased a Lenovo Ideapad 3-14ITL6 and the OS installation (Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS) itself went fine.

  However there was this firmware update offered so I clicked on it. The
  entry disappeared from the list in the Software Center for a short
  wile but has soon (in a few seconds) reappeared. No error, nothing.

  Then after a few minutes (and without seeing any error log anywhere
  I've looked) I did try to restart the device.

  Unfortunately after this point the system wouldn't boot with bios
  saying "missing boot device". Ubuntu live USB will not see the drive
  either.

  I can also unfortunately confirm this does happen regularly as I tried
  it on a second device today. That's very unfortunate as I am left with
  a second broken device that I will very probably need to return back
  to the seller because I don't know what else to do with it.

  Thank you.
  Best regards,
