For what it's worth, I tossed together a COPR build of 4.1.6 for enabling dell_rbu: https://copr.fedoraproject.org/coprs/mhayden/kernel-dellrbu/build/109667/ I installed it on an Optiplex 3020 and I was able to update the BIOS without any problems. -- Major Hayden _______________________________________________ kernel mailing list kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/kernel
